The club's management expressed gratitude to Vanoli for his efforts, but disappointing results this season forced them to make this tough decision.
Vanoli took charge of Fiorentina in November 2025 after leaving Torino. He managed the club for 38 matches, recording 14 wins, 11 draws, and 13 defeats.
As a result of the past season, Fiorentina finished 15th—an underwhelming outcome for a club of their stature.
