Rome - Former Argentine striker Abel Balbo has quit the coaching job at struggling Serie B side Treviso after clinching a single point from four games, Italian media reported.

Luca Gotti, 41, Thursday took back the job he had left to Balbo, 42, in a controversial switch in late February.

Rome  - Former Argentine striker Abel Balbo Wednesday walked out on Treviso just minutes after starting his first coaching session with the Serie B minnows, Italian media reported.

The club from north-eastern Italy lie last in the league and hired Balbo, 42, on Tuesday to replace Luca Gotti on Tuesday. The players however refused to train on Tuesday saying that they wouldn't train due to the absence of the team doctor.

The team showed up Wednesday, but Balbo left the pitch shortly after the start of the training session.
