Turkey set to sack Vincenzo Montella

Turkey are reportedly set to sack head coach Vincenzo Montella following a disappointing run of results in the Nations League.

According to Turkish newspaper Milliyet, the Turkish Football Federation has decided to end its cooperation with the Italian coach. However, the dismissal has not yet been officially confirmed.

Turkey have lost all four of their Nations League matches so far, suffering two defeats against Italy and one each against France and Belgium.

Montella took charge of the national team in September 2023 and guided Turkey to the quarter-finals of Euro 2024 and qualification for the 2026 World Cup.

The 52-year-old is reportedly set to receive compensation worth five months of his salary following his departure.
