AS Roma have officially parted ways with head coach Daniele De Rossi following a disappointing start to the 2024-25 Serie A season. The club confirmed the news via their website and social media channels, citing the team’s poor form as the primary reason behind the decision. Roma have only managed to secure 3 points from their opening four matches, leaving them just above the relegation zone—a situation the board deemed untenable. (via The New York Times)

De Rossi, a club legend as a player, had been appointed as head coach in January 2024, succeeding José Mourinho. Despite early optimism surrounding his tenure, results have fallen short of expectations, leading to his dismissal. Can they overcome their issues in their next game against Udinese, or they will continue with their unlucky streak? Find on our page, and place a bet!


De Rossi’s Mixed Record as Roma Manager

Daniele De Rossi’s time as Roma’s manager has been a turbulent one. After taking over the reins from Mourinho, De Rossi initially injected some energy into the side, but consistency proved elusive. His managerial record stands at 30 matches, comprising 14 wins, 9 draws, and 7 losses. Unfortunately, the 41-year-old was unable to guide the team to the kind of form that Roma fans had hoped for, particularly in the current Serie A campaign.

Despite his struggles in the dugout, De Rossi’s legacy at Stadio Olimpico remains firmly intact. As a player, the iconic midfielder made 616 appearances for Roma, scoring 63 goals and providing 61 assists. His playing career, marked by leadership and passion, is how many will remember him.


What’s Next for Roma?

As of now, AS Roma have yet to announce who will replace Daniele De Rossi as head coach. The club will be eager to turn their fortunes around quickly as they face the daunting task of climbing up the Serie A table. One bright spot for them remains Nicola Zalewski, the talented Polish national team player, who will be crucial to the team’s recovery.
