History:
Palermo is one of Serie A’s rising squads and has nearly qualified for the Champions League the last few seasons. In spite of their recent success, they have historically been a weaker squad and they spent much of their existence in Italy’s lower divisions. In fact, the team has thus far never won a single significant trophy in its 109 year history.
