‘Roberto’s teams play an exciting and courageous brand of football, and I am confident his style and tactical approach will suit our existing squad superbly.’ De Zebri has signed a four-year contract at the Amex and has become the club’s third manager since their promotion to the Premier League in 2017, following Chris Houghton and Potter.
