Daniele De Rossi, the former captain of Roma, has been appointed as the club’s Italian coach after signing a three-year contract extension. This comes as recognition for his impressive performance as Jose Mourinho’s replacement. In April, Roma had already stated that he would continue as the first team coach “for the foreseeable future,” with the confirmation of the extension now made official.
Roma was struggling last season when they finished in sixth place in Serie A, missing out on Champions League positions. However, De Rossi brought a revitalized energy to the team and guided them to the semi-finals of the Europa League. Despite not winning any trophies during his time at Roma, he left a lasting impact on the club and its fans.
De Rossi’s coaching experience is limited, with his only previous managerial position lasting just four months at lower-league club SPAL before abruptly ending in February of the previous year. Nevertheless, he is highly respected by both Rome fans and Italian football enthusiasts alike. He won a World Cup in 2006 and is widely regarded as one of Italy’s greatest players of all time.
Growing up in a tough suburb of Rome, De Rossi’s passion on the field endeared him to fans from an early age. Although he won only two Italian Cups and one Italian Super Cup during his playing career with Roma, he left a lasting legacy on the club before moving to Boca Juniors in early 2020 after spending some time playing in Argentina.
Overall, Daniele De Rossi has proven himself to be a capable coach despite having limited experience and will be eager to continue leading Roma forward towards success.
