AS Roma: Rudi Garcia among the five star coaches targeted

Rome is worse than Dallas. After the lunar dismissal of the much-loved Daniele De Rossi, his replacement, Ivan Juric, only lasted two short months before leaving after only four victories in twelve matches. The opportunity for De Rossi to let it be known that he would not say no to a return, a few weeks after the rumor announcing a potential comeback at Trigoria (the Giallorossi training center).

Never return to Roma? I never said this thing. Beyond the dynamics as a player and as a coach, dismissal is part of the job, I am at home there, my father also works there. I spent more time in Trigoria (town where Roma’s training center is based, editor’s note) and here (in Coverciano, editor’s note) than at home. So, just like I came back to Nazionale, I will also come back to Trigoria.» Will he be listened to? Not sure. Owners of the Louve club, the Friedkins are now working to find a new coach.

Rudi Garcia contacted

And according to the Gazzetta dello Sportthis choice will be made without the advice of French sports director Florent Ghisolfi, whose influence in Rome has become almost non-existent. The former Nice player would not have participated in any strategic decision over the last six months. Enough to seriously call into question its future in the Italian capital. The pink paper diary tells us that the Friedkins were in London yesterday to dig up tracks for Graham Potter and Erik ten Hag. The two coaches have the advantage of being free and used to clubs whose backstage is hectic… like Roma.

It remains to be seen whether the Englishman and the Batavian are ready to accept a salary which will necessarily be lower than that which they received in the Premier League (around €6.5 million per year for ETH). Other unemployed technicians are also being tracked: Edin Terzic (ex-BVB), the former Saudi Arabia coach Roberto Mancini, but especially the Frenchman Rudi Garcia. Visiting Rome between 2013 and 2018, Garcia spoke with Roman leaders. Always as good a talker when it comes to pleasing during his job interviews, the Frenchman must however manage his unflattering time at Napoli. The casting is on!
