Silvio Baldini has left Catania by mutual consent.

A statement from Catania last night confirmed the coach's departure - which came less than 24 hours after defeat to Torino.

"The club noted the Coach's feelings and after a series of discussions the decision was taken by both sides that Baldini would no longer be Catania's tactician," a statement explained.

"We would like to thank Silvio for all the work he has done and wish him all the best on a personal and professional level."
