Former Saudi Arabian coach Roberto Mancini’s return to Serie A is on the verge of collapse. AS Roma is trying to return the retired master as a firefighter.
Sky Sports Italy reported on the 13th (Korea time) that AS Roma is negotiating with 74-year-old coach Claudio Ranieri, who announced his retirement.
“Ranieri met with Friedkins, the owner of the Roman team, in London, the U.K. Fredkins met with Roberto Mancini and Vincenzo Montera, and even met Ranieri,” the media reported.
“Ranieri met the owner with his agent in London. He is currently one of the leading candidates along with Montesla and Machini,” the report said.
Currently, Rome is negotiated by Ryan Friedkin and sports director Florang Gisolfi.
“(Ranieri) thinks it will be the safest way to guard against an emergency and will choose a new coach in the future. Montera is facing fierce resistance from the Turkiye Football Association,” the media said.
The veteran Ranieri left Cagliari in May and announced his retirement. Cagliari announced on his official website at the time that Ranieri was retiring after completing his career.
“Ranieri is saying goodbye to Cagliari. Having been with the club twice, he has achieved his ultimate goal. Having been a writer of two previous promotions (Serie C to Serie A), he has led the team to win the promotion playoffs for the past year and a half and stay in Serie A this season,” the club said.
“Tears of joy and gratitude are flowing through Ranieri for writing the most beautiful scenes in Cagliari’s history. His achievements will remain in the hearts of all fans of the club forever,” he added.
“I’ve decided to leave now and it’s my job to do. I hesitated because it’s hard and painful to decide, but I think it’s appropriate to retire,” Ranieri said in a video from the club. 메이저사이트
Ranieri, who was born in 1951 and is over 70, finished his career with Palermo (Italy) in 1986 and immediately started his career as a manager of a small club called Vigor Lamesia.
And in 1988, Ranieri took charge of Cagliari, who was then in Serie C. In his first season, he immediately promoted the team to Serie B and immediately changed Cagliari’s history by promoting the team to Serie A.
After receiving attention from all over Italy, Ranieri’s career rose vertically. He then took charge of Naples in 1991 and Fiorentina in 1993, and led Fiorentina to Serie A promotion again. He even won the Copa Italy title in 1996.
