Fiorentina coach Stefano Pioli had a long phone conversation with club executives where he refused to accept being fired by the club following poor results in the Italian league.
"Viola" is in 19th position in the table with only four points from 10 matches, and the team's management has asked for the dismissal of the Italian coach, but the response has been negative from Pioli.
Sources from Italy say that Stefano Pioli is willing to change the details of his 3-year contract with Fiorentina but will not accept his dismissal.
Fiorentina returns to the pitch against Mainz in the Conference League.
Fiorentina's U20 coach could be the coach who would replace Pioli in the event of his departure.
