MILAN (Reuters) - Andrea Mandorlini, the longest-serving coach in Serie A, was fired by Verona on Monday, ending five years during which he led the club from the third tier and back to the top flight.

The former Inter Milan defender was dismissed with his team bottom of Serie A and without a win so far this season. They have six draws and eight defeats from 14 games and were beaten 3-2 by Serie A debutants Frosinone on Sunday.
