Lecce suffered a very bad season start, with an elimination in Coppa Italia and 9 losses in 13 league matches. On 3 December, the manager Eusebio Di Francesco was sacked: Serse Cosmi was appointed new coach. After his arrival, the side began to struggle in the attempt to avoid relegation and although gaining a notable number of points in the following months, did not manage to escape, mainly due to four losses in the last five matches, being relegated to Serie B.
