Newly-appointed coach Giuseppe Pillon is excited about the challenge of trying to help Reggina avoid relegation from Serie A.

Pillon's only previous top-flight experience came during a stint in charge of Chievo Verona and the 52-year-old is relishing the opportunity presented by Nevio Orlandi's sacking.

He told the club's official website: "I am coming to an important club who have given me the chance to work in Serie A.

"It is something that I have wanted so much since my experience with Chievo.

"I want to make the most of my chance. I like the team I have seen and I think they have the potential to do really well.

"I really believe in the objective of survival and I will try and achieve it at all costs."
