Modena FC has announced the departure of head coach Andrea Sottil, citing a need for a new direction. Sottil had been in charge since June 16, 2025, and had led the team to a sixth-place finish in Serie BKT, securing a spot in the playoffs after 12 years. However, the team's performance slowed down after the March break, with a 1.7 points-per-game average and 5 losses, 2 draws, and 1 win in the last 10 games. Sottil's overall record at Modena includes 40 games, 15 wins, 10 draws, and 15 losses, including Coppa Italia and playoff matches. The team's offense struggled, scoring only 23 goals out of 49, while the defense was a strength, conceding 36 goals, the fifth-best in the league.
