Roma sporting director Florent Ghisolfi insists Claudio Ranieri is the right choice for the present. And the future after the veteran manager was appointed back to the football club.
2024 has been a tumultuous year for the Giallorossi, who sacked Jose Mourinho in January. Then fired Daniele De Rossi in September. Before Ivan Juric was sacked less than two months ago.UFABET
Ranieri has recently been recalled. Despite previously announcing his retirement, to take charge of the team until the end of the season. With him expected to take on a more senior role after that.
“It’s not an easy time for us.” said Gisolfi Roma
“I think as captains we need to keep the spirits high. We need to keep going and take everyone with us. The important thing is to stay positive.”
Ranieri announced his retirement from football last summer after leading Cagliari to promotion and maintaining their Serie A status. But he has been keen to return to work for the club he supported all his life.
“I think it’s a great opportunity for me and the club as a whole. I know him. But what I’m learning now is different. He’s a good guy.” added Gisolfi.
“First of all, I think Ranieri will bring calmness to the club. His incredible career doesn’t need to be presented. We believe he is the right person to improve our future and in the short term.”
“The important thing is to be mobile, not to be still. We want to work and produce results with Ranieri. We believe that the club needs someone like him who knows Italian football very well.”
