Oh to be a supporter of Palermo.

The Italian club has re-hired Giuseppe Iachini - three months after he was fired - in its fourth coaching change of the season.

Iachini was sacked in November but his replacement Davide Ballardini was dismissed two months later.

Guillermo Barros Schelotto was brought in but did not have the correct coaching license. He coached from the stands for a month as he awaited confirmation from Uefa, but it did not offer approval and youth squad coach Giovanni Bosi was appointed.

However, Bosi lasted just one match - Sunday's 3-1 defeat to Torino - which left Palermo in 15th place, four points above the relegation zone ... and asking Iachini to return.

You couldn't make it up.

Chelsea's Eden Hazard has reignited speculation over his future by saying it would be difficult to rebuff an approach from Paris St Germain.

The Blues face the French side in the Champions League tomorrow. Speaking ahead of the game, Hazard told Le Parisien: "(It is) difficult to say no to PSG, or to any of the teams capable of winning the Champions League.
