Rome is still in shock after the dismissal of Daniel DeRossiwho has no longer been the coach of the Giallorossi since Wednesday morning. The day after slipped away in a surreal climate, with some behind-the-scenes stories that led to the coach’s dismissal that have emerged. The decisive factor was the phrase uttered by Totti (“Daniele is a lightning rod”) which, according to CEO Lina Souloukou, was inspired by DDR. The manager wants to maintain control, the Friedkins have entrusted her with the task of making decisions. The management of the Zalewski and Dybala cases also weighed, with the latter even leading to De Rossi’s resignation in recent weeks, which was then rejected. He had in fact been asked not to let the Joya play more than 14 games, so as not to trigger the automatic renewal, something he considered an interference in his work.
What is certain is that the fans are on the side of the one who was once Captain Future, a flag bearer of the club. Juric will therefore make his debut amidst boos, the Olimpico is preparing to protest and side with De Rossi. Those at risk of ending up in the eye of the storm are the Friedkins and captain Lorenzo Pellegrini. However, the midfielder, together with Mancini, supported DDR in every way, which is why they asked the club for explanations and had a rather heated confrontation with the management. The former Roma coach let slip a phrase, moved, before returning home: “This time I’m not coming back…”. There has still been no official comment from the person directly concerned, who attended the funeral of the former club doctor Alicicco on Thursday.
