The 2014-15 campaign delivered a sensational return to Serie A for Palermo as the newly-promoted Rosanero secured a strong mid-table 11th-place finish under manager Giuseppe Iachini. Spearheading the attack was the young Argentine maestro Paulo Dybala, whose 13 league goals and a team-high 10 assists marked a stunning breakout season, forming a brilliant and lethal partnership with Franco Vázquez. Despite a turbulent start that saw them winless in the first six games and a shock early exit from the Coppa Italia, the team finished the year with immense confidence, demonstrating that the future of the Rosanero shone brightly on the emerging talent of their star Argentine duo.
