Fiorentina director Daniele Prade is coy over the future of coach Vincenzo Italiano.

Prade was speaking before last night's Coppa Italia semifinal defeat to Atalanta.

He stated: “Considering everything that happened, we cannot look to the future, but to the present. The future is now. We are in the semi-final of the Coppa Italia and the Conference League.

“Naturally, like all clubs, we already have some plans for next season.

"Fortunately, this is a club that is in the ascendant, many players and coaches want to come here and are impressed with what we've done so far."
