Paolo List, fan favourite in Zdenek Zeman’s Foggia side, has died at the age of 52 due to ALS complications.

The right-back featured heavily in the legendary squad that earned promotion to Serie A under the tutelage of Zeman from 1988 to 1991.

The official Foggia website confirmed his passing, as he had been suffering from ALS – Amyotrophobic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as Lou Gherig’s Disease.

Zdenek Zeman doesn’t believe Roma can win the Scudetto yet. “Their problem has always been consistency.”

The Giallorossi are feeling confident after seven points from the opening three rounds, plus an impressive 1-1 Champions League draw with Barcelona.

“Roma already had an excellent squad, but their problem has always been consistency,” Lugano Coach Zeman told Sportitalia.

“If they are finally able to find the right consistency, then the Giallorossi can challenge for the Scudetto.

Andrej Modic was denied a work permit, so Milan could send Alessandro Mastalli to Zdenek Zeman’s Lugano instead.

The deal had been done for Rossoneri youth team player and Bosnia Under-19 international Modic to join Lugano on loan for this season.

However, he was sent back to base after failing to secure a work permit.

Now Sky Sport Italia claim the clubs are working out the details to send fellow midfielder Mastalli in his place.

Unlike Modic, Mastalli does have one Serie A appearance under his belt.

Cagliari President Tommaso Giulini says Radja Nainggolan’s move to Roma was ‘logical’, and ‘he’ll end his career at Cagliari’.

The Belgian midfielder had previously been co-owned by the Isolani and the Giallorossi, a situation which was only resolved on Wednesday.

“Nainggolan to Roma was the most logical ending,” Giulini told Corriere dello Sport.

“He wanted the Giallorossi, and it’s only right that Roma kept him, because he’s an amazing player who is very attached to that shirt.

Zdenek Zeman has officially found a new job in Switzerland with FC Lugano.

The former Roma, Lazio and Napoli Coach is out of work after a tempestuous campaign at Cagliari.

He was hired last summer, sacked in December, recalled to replace Gianfranco Zola and then resigned before the team’s relegation.

A statement confirmed Zeman met with Lugano President Angelo Renzetti in Rome.

They discussed a one-year contract worth €400,000 and the presentation is expected in Switzerland on Wednesday.

Miralem Pjanic said he wants to stay at Roma and be joined by Edin Dzeko, but is glad Zdenek Zeman has gone.

The midfielder sat down with Roma TV and looked over a series of photographs depicting his time at the club.

“I hope to wear the Roma jersey many more times, because I am happy here. The city is fantastic, the club is great and the fans live for football,” said the Bosnia international.

Pjanic also dropped a hint that he’s trying to convince Manchester City striker Dzeko to make the move.

Gianluca Festa says he'd like to keep coaching Cagliari into next season, whilst discussing the game with Cesena.

The 46-year old picked up the team on April 21 after the resignation of Zdenek Zeman, but by then it was too late and the team walk into today's game with no hopes of escaping relegation.

“I wanted to call up the players who were in the best condition, and I'll try fielding the best possible XI,” he said. “These are important games for everyone, myself included.

Luca Rossettini blamed Zdenek Zeman for Cagliari’s relegation. “We had some warning signs in pre-season.”

The Sardinians had been in the top flight for 11 years, but their drop down to Serie B was decided with two rounds to spare.

“We had some warning signs in pre-season at Sappada,” defender Rossettini commented.

“The fitness work we did was frightening. Personally, I had never seen anything like it.

Cagliari are on the verge of relegation, but President Tommaso Giulini would “choose Zdenek Zeman again a thousand times.”

The Sardinians will go down if Atalanta pick up a point against Genoa, regardless of what result Cagliari get with Palermo.

“I would choose Zeman or Gianfranco Zola again a thousand times,” Giulini told Radiolina.

“However, now I will begin again with a more conservative choice. I hear many names suggested, but I can assure you we haven’t contacted anybody yet.
