Serie B side Frosinone have officially sacked coach Alessandro Nesta and replaced him with fellow 2006 World Cup winner Fabio Grosso.

Nesta had been at the helm since the summer of 2019, but failed to earn promotion to Serie A and was dismissed after winning just one of the last seven games.

A 3-0 home defeat to promotion contenders Lecce at the weekend proved the final straw.

Frosinone announced this afternoon that Nesta has been replaced by his Italy international teammate Grosso.
