What has been hinted at for weeks has become reality since Friday evening: Salernitana is the first to be relegated after three years in Serie A and has to move to the second division. A 0-3 defeat in a direct duel against Frosinone, who was also threatened with relegation, sealed relegation.

It is also clear that FC Südtirol will face the club from Campania in Serie B for the first time next season. The local footballers will not be happy to make the trip to Salerno, after all, this is the city at the gates of the Amalfi Coast, which is one of the most enchanting places in all of Italy and attracts thousands of visitors from all over the world every year.

For Salernitana it was a season of bankruptcies, bad luck and mishaps. Four different coaches (including ex-world-class goalscorer Filippo Inzaghi) took a seat on the Granata bench.

Even Boateng cannot prevent relegation

In February, the club also caused a stir when Jerome Boateng, a German world champion from 2014, was signed. With just seven appearances, the former Bayern star couldn't prevent relegation. The 35-year-old was repeatedly absent due to injury. Franck Ribery, another football icon, was a technical coach at Salernitana until a month ago, but has said goodbye, according to a report.
