Vincenzo Montella has reportedly told Fiorentina he cannot be reached until July 5, further infuriating the club.
The Coach has been taking his time over deciding whether to remain with the Viola next season, as he said they had reached “the natural end of an era.”
He has a contract until 2016 and met with the directors to discuss their strategy, but the delay irritated patron Andrea Della Valle, who released a terse statement.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Montella has now told Fiorentina he cannot be reached until July 5.
This seems almost as if he’s trying to provoke a reaction from the club and his departure now seems somewhat inevitable.
The favourite to take over is Paulo Sousa of Basel, though current Torino Coach Giampiero Ventura is another alternative.
