Paolo Zanetti was released two days after a 4-0 loss at Cagliari, which left Hellas Verona bottom of Serie A — below Pisa, which also has 14 points from 23 games.

Pisa fired its coach, Alberto Girardino, on Sunday.

It means six Italian top-flight clubs have changed coaches already this season.

Hellas Verona’s only two wins so far in Serie A came back to back in December.

The team is four points from safety with 15 rounds remaining.
