Fiorentina president Andrea Della Valle says they are standing by coach Cesare Prandelli.

"Prandelli just tried to reunite the club, fans and players together in their common goals," assured Della Valle on Radio Blu.

"I hope he will remain with us for a very long time. There is passion in Florence, at times too much, as some would need a little more common sense.

"The fans have never let their support waver, though. I think the controversy can be considered over and done with."
