During an interview with Tutti Convocati on Radio 24, Torino president Urbano Cairo discussed a variety of issues including the dismissal of coach Siniša Mihajlović during the winter break. Here is what he had to say:

“Mihajlović says I didn’t call him? I can understand why he might say these things, but who calls him is relative to the situation. He had a good relationship with Gianluca Petrachi, which is the main reason why I didn’t sack him earlier.

“We are in a moment of confusion, but sometimes confusion can spark a rebirth and mean that positive times are ahead. When you hit rock bottom, which is where we are today I think, we can rise again and look forward to doing good things again.

“FIGC? All I will say is that there are lots of people who are capable of governing Italian football for the better and we must allow them to work in the best way.”
