Ghisolfi: “Ranieri will not be the coach in 2025-26”. Then he insists on Frattesi: “Son of Rome”

Florent GhisolfiRoma’s sporting director, spoke at Sky Sports before the match against Genoa to take stock of the Giallorossi’s market and present the match against the Rossoblù. These are his statements, with a focus also on the future of Mr. Ranieri:

You are very close to Ajax full-back, Devyne Rensch: he confirms it?
“I don’t want to comment on every name in the transfer market, but we are working on this position. We want a player who can play full-back, wing-back and fifth, someone who has a Roma mentality and who gives continuity to our team.”

He defined Frattesi as “a son of Rome”: he can arrive instead?
“You will understand that I don’t want to talk about players from other teams, even if they are sons of Rome (laughs, ed.). The most important thing is tonight’s match, we face a team like Genoa who have never lost away. We have to play with intensity against the rossoblù”.

Where are you at with the search for a new coach??
“Maybe we can still convince the coach (laughs, ed.). I don’t want to talk about names, today I say that Ranieri is doing an incredible job. For me it’s a great opportunity to work with him. He’s a different man, I feel that he has the dream of bring Roma to another level and I will do everything to help him realize this dream.”

There is still the possibility that next season’s coach will be Ranieri?
“No, he has already said that he will be a great manager for Roma.”

What struck you in particular about Ranieri??
“First of all, his personality. Ranieri brings calm, serenity… He knows Roma and he knows Roma, as well as knowing all the players. I’m very happy to work with him.”
