Roma Not in Favor of Coaching Reunion, Cast Wide Net

After beating Torino midweek and buying Ivan Juric some more time, Roma suffered another loss at the hands of Hellas Verona. The boss is now hanging by a thread. The Giallorossi have been mulling another coaching change for a couple of weeks. They might pull the trigger soon.

According to Adnkronos, even though Daniele De Rossi is under contract, the ownership doesn’t want to walk back their decision and considers him too green. They aim to hire a high-profile gaffer who could quiet things down and get the best out of the squad.

Per La Gazzetta dello Sport, Roma are examining a few foreigners to succeed Juric. Their American owners have returned to Europe and were in Paris on Sunday. They spoke with the entourage of Paulo Sousa. He’s helming Shabab Al-Ahli but a prestigious and long-term offer would entice him to leave.

Frank Lampard and Graham Potter are the new entries in their shortlist. The Friedkin recently took over Everton, expanding their network to the Premier League. Edin Terzic continues to linger in their search. As for the Italian options, Roberto Mancini and Claudio Ranieri’s candidacies are the strongest ones, while Massimiliano Allegri and Maurizio Sarri are less likely.

Our Take on Roma

Sticking with Juric, which would have needed the summer to fare decently given his intricate and taxing scheme, would be detrimental. Their stance about going with somebody established who would serve as a larger figure than just the coach is correct, but they need to find the right guy. It’s a wild goose chase by the press, as their owners often tend to keep everybody in the dark until the last moment.
