This summer, Roma will usher in the replacement of the coach. According to the latest news from famous reporter Romano, Rome has reached an agreement with 67-year-old Gasperini, and the two parties will sign a contract for three years. Pellegrini will replace Ranieri as Roma's new coach.

Roma's current head coach is Ranieri, who is already 73 years old. In November last year, Roma had a poor record and the team had to change coaches again. Considering that it is difficult to find a famous coach during the season, Roma found the retired Ranieri and asked him to come out of the mountain to put out the fire urgently.

Out of deep feelings for Rome, Ranieri resolutely made a comeback. This is his third personal coaching Rome. After taking office, Ranieri led Roma to achieve an unfavorable record and was unbeaten for 19 consecutive rounds. He brought Roma from 12th in Serie A to 5th in Serie A, which was quite magical!

Although many Rome fans hope Ranieri can stay, the old coach has decided to leave. Recently, Ranieli has repeatedly stated that he will definitely retire this summer, which is something he has decided long ago, and he must enjoy the retirement life. At the same time, Ranieri has been helping Rome find a new coach.

famous reporters Romano and Di Mazio both said today that Rome and 67-year-old Gasperini reached an agreement that the two sides will sign a contract for three years next. Gasperini has also coached in football for 31 years, but he can only be considered a junior in front of Ranieri. Since 2016, Gasperini has coached in Atlanta for 9 years.

After receiving the invitation from Rome, Gasperini decided to terminate the contract with Atlanta. At present, he has submitted his resignation to the club, and his departure is only the last official announcement. Under Gasperini's transformation, Atlanta's combat effectiveness has been greatly improved, and it has been nicknamed "real blue and black" by fans. Last year, Gasperini just led the team to the Europa League.
