De Rossi Set To Steer Roma’s Future as Head Coach

Daniele De Rossi has been confirmed to remain as the head coach of AS Roma beyond the current season, marking a significant development in his career as he transitions from a legendary player to a successful manager. This decision came after a meeting with the club owners, Dan and Ryan Friedkin, who expressed their delight in continuing Roma’s journey with De Rossi at the helm.

Since taking over from José Mourinho in January, De Rossi has led Roma to a remarkable resurgence, climbing from ninth to fifth place in the Serie A standings and positioning the team for a potential Champions League spot. His impact on the club has been nothing short of transformative, with Roma scoring 35 goals in 16 games under his leadership, compared to 1.5 goals per game under Mourinho.

The decision to extend De Rossi’s contract is a testament to his leadership and the positive impact he has had on the entire club. It also reflects the Friedkins’ commitment to building a long-term project with De Rossi, aligning with Roma’s values, city, and fans.

As Roma prepares for a Europa League quarter-final second leg against AC Milan, De Rossi’s focus remains on the future, with a clear vision for the club’s development and growth. His passion and dedication to Roma, coupled with his deep-rooted belief in the team, make him a perfect fit for steering Roma’s future.
