Palermo

25th February. By Danni Biggs.
The struggling Serie A Palermo has hired Uruguayan Diego Lopez as new coach, replacing Eugenio Corini and making it Palermo's 11^th coaching change in two seasons.  Winning just 2 games out of 21, 42 year old Diego took on the job to revive the mighty Palermo who sits just two points above bottom of the table.

Eugenio Corini was named as Palermo's coach in November 2016, their third that season in fact. After just 7 games in charge, Corini a former Palermo player himself took the decision to resign as coach after winning just one game in 7. His decision came just two days after Palermo were beaten 1-0 at home by Inter Milan. A pained and upset Corini said "This is a decision that I've taken with integrity and lucidness, which makes me feel great pain, but which seems the fairest and most logical option right now."

Diego Lopez Signs Contract until June 30, 2018

In mid-December, Maurizio Zamparini-the current President of U.S. Citta di Palermo-wrote an open letter to fans, letting them know that he was in the process of looking for a new buyer for the football club. The letter discussed the current financial state of the union at Palermo, as well as what Zamparini clearly sees as an unfair financial inequity between Italy's top soccer organizations. Finally, Zamparini said that he was looking for "an Arabian, Chinese, or Russian millionaire who can afford to lose money," stating that he can no longer afford to sink his own money into the Eagles.

The Zamparini Era

Zamparini acquired Palermo in 2002. In his open letter to fans, he says that, back then, the organization was "a club full of

U.S. Citta di Palermo fans got a treat on June 30^th, as the Italian football club unveiled a slew of new kit designs for the 2015 2016 season. Rather than separating the launches of their various kits as other clubs have done, the Eagles opted to publicly unveil all of their new jerseys at the same time. Soccer Box already has stock available of the new Palermo kit 2015 - 2016 home and away jersey designs, while new versions of the team's third jersey and goalkeeper shirt have also been introduced.

Once again, Palermo's official jerseys come from Joma, serving their second year as the soccer club's kit manufacturer. Previously, Palermo had worked with Puma (from 2012 through last year) and Legea (from 2010 to 2012), while Lotto was the football club's kit manufacturer for the first decade of the 2000s. Joma did stunning work on the squad's uniforms last year, though, and is continuing the tradition of excellence with these new 2015 2016 soccer shirt designs.

Saturday, May 2^nd was a big day for top-flight Italian football, as Juventus beat Sampdoria 1-0 to clinch the 2014 2015 Serie A title. However, for fans of U.S. Citta di Palermo, Saturday brought the third disappointing match outcome in as many weeks. With a scoreless draw at Sassuolo, the Eagles further solidified their spot outside the top 10 in the league standings. Help them turn things around by picking up a new Palermo shirt from Soccer Box and showing your support for the team.

In many ways, the 11^th place slot where the Eagles are currently situated in Serie A is still evidence that the squad has performed above expectations this year. After all, Palermo were promoted into the top-flight this year after a division winning performance in the Serie B. For the club to be on the cusp of a top 10 finish is absolutely impressive, and at Soccer Box you can celebrate the strong performance with a new team shirt! We still have stock remaining of the distinctive

It's been a whirlwind of a year for US Citta di Palermo. The club was promoted to the top tier of Italian football for the 2014 2015 season after topping the Serie B table last year. A rough start to the season made it look like the soccer team would be headed straight back to the second tier. But somehow, the squad has managed to turn things around and climb into the division's top 10! Celebrate the impressive accomplishment today, with a new Palermo jersey from the Soccer Box online store!

At Soccer Box, we have several jersey designs in stock for the Eagles. The club's trademark is the unique pink Palermo home shirt 2014 2015, which is currently available for a bargain discount price of 15% off! We also carry the white away shirt, the black third jersey, and several versions of the Palermo training shirt.

This year's new Palermo soccer jersey variations, created by Joma, are now available for purchase. The new jerseys capture a lot of what has made the team's jerseys special for many years, including the black and pink color scheme that has so long been a Palermo trademark.

The new Palermo jerseys are now available for purchase from Soccer Box, where you can get your hands on either the Palermo home shirt - a gorgeous pink shirt with black trim - or the Palermo away shirt 2014 2015 - a white jersey with black and pink striping and trim.
