As stated by the Athletic journalist, the former Wolves manager is back working in football as he is the boss of Serie A side, Cagliari Calcio (per Tim Spiers), which had supporters baffled.
Congrats to Walter Zenga who's back in football as boss of Cagliari (11th in Serie A).
As he told me last year, Wolves remain in his heart #WWFC https://t.co/LWmk3kZJ3V

How does he keep getting a job? Very poor manager.

Do you have an overall positive or negative opinion on Walter Zenga?Negative, he was terrible for us
Positive, he was sacked too soon

The 59-year-old Italian was in charge at Molineux for just under three months in 2016, during which he oversaw 17 games and claimed a total of 1.29 points per match (as per Transfermarkt).
Following his sacking by the Old Gold, Zenga has managed three Italian sides, Crotone, Venezia and, now, Cagliari (per Transfermarkt), however, some supporters had some praise their former gaffer.
I liked Zenga, bought passion back to the club and was the perfect bridge into the Nuno era.

Lovely man

Personally I thought he was class and actually cared. Would’ve preferred him all season to half him half lambert

What do we think?
Over 14 Championship games with Wolves in 2016, Zenga led the side to just four victories, with four draws and six defeats to accompany them (per Transfermarkt), leaving it as perhaps no surprise that he was sacked after just 87 days (per BBC).
Supporters, however, still seem divided in their opinions of the Italian manager, with some still looking back on his time at the club with fairly fond memories.
