Former Chelsea assistant Luca Gotti has been named Lecce s new coach after Roberto D Aversa was fired for appearing to headbutt an opposing player. Gotti was Maurizio Sarri s assistant at Chelsea in 2018-19 and was more recently the head coach at Udinese and Spezia. Lecce said Gotti was given a contract until the end of the season that will be extended if the southern club avoids relegation. D Aversa lost control at the end of Sunday s 1-0 home loss to fellow struggler Hellas Verona and knocked over Verona striker Thomas Henry with an apparent headbutt directly in front of one of the match officials.
