The 1992-93 campaign delivered a shocking and disastrous relegation for Fiorentina as La Viola finished 16th in Serie A, dropping to Serie B despite a star-studded squad. Leading the potent attack was the prolific Gabriel Batistuta, whose 16 league goals proved insufficient in a campaign built on defensive frailty and managerial turmoil that saw four different coaches take the helm. It was a dramatic year that saw them relegated on the final day for the first time in over 40 years, and it remains a painful and defining chapter in the club's history.
