Last week saw Paolo Di Canio spark yet further controversy in the world of football, however, this time as a manager of Swindon Town. The Italian was caught up in a pitch-side bust-up with striker Leon Clarke, after the striker had fallen out with the club’s fitness coach on the pitch. Di Canio’s attempts to diffuse the situation appear to have backfired, as a dispute between the forward and the Swindon boss soon escalated down the tunnel.
Di Canio has since claimed that Clarke does not deserve to wear the Swindon Town shirt, and is set to be released on loan by the club. In light of this controversial bust-up, I have put together a selection of ten of the most controversial football managers of all time.
