News about Daniele De Rossi

A Barcelona legend has urged the club to hire Jose Mourinho as their next manager to replace the outgoing Xavi - insisting he should not be overlooked just because he has history managing rivals Real Madrid.  Mourinho - a two-time Champions League winner - is on the lookout for a new job after being sacked by Roma in January following one win in six, with club legend Daniele De Rossi replacing him.  Barca are also searching for a new coach after news that Xavi would be leaving his post at the end of the season. 

Roma have confirmed Daniele De Rossi 'will stay' at the club beyond the end of the season, thanks partly to his transformational work guiding the Giallorossi to the Europa League semi-finals. The 40-year-old, who was appointed Roma boss in January hours after the Italian side sacked Jose Mourinho, celebrated with his team on Thursday night after they claimed a 3-1 aggregate victory against Serie A rivals AC Milan. The Italian World Cup winner's contract was initially set to expire at the end of the 2023-24 season, but having guided Roma to fifth place in the Italian top-flight - winning 26 points from 11 matches - the club's owners have rewarded the former Roma midfielder for his work. 

Last season, AC Milan were treated to an all-Italian European clash when they took on rivals Inter Milan in the Champions League semi-finals.  Fast forward one year and the Rossoneri are faced with a similar prospect, this time taking on Daniele De Rossi's Roma in a Europa League quarter-final affair.  Stefano Pioli's Milan have already completed a domestic double over their rivals in their Serie A campaign but have the opportunity to compile further misery when they meet on Thursday.

It's been an exciting weekend of Serie A action, with ALVISE CAGNAZZO. Juventus' indifferent form continued with the Old Lady being held to a 0-0 draw by Genoa, with Massimiliano Allegri's side winning only one match in their last eight matches. Bologna, on the other hand, has never registered for the Champions League, but if they keep up, they might beat Roma to earn a spot in the illustrious European competition. Roma beat Sassuolo, but Bologna maintained a three-point advantage over Daniele De Rossi's side with a victory over Empoli over weekend.

Milan and Roma will face one of their bitter rivals from his playing days Daniele De Rossi, the latter's boss, will face one of his closest friends from his youth.

In Italy, ALVISE CAGNAZZO reveals the winners, the continuation of good runs of form and more dissatisfaction with others, while some players are starting to find their form at a critical time of the season.

Roma is scheduled to host Torino at the Stadio Olimpico in Torino, with Daniele De Rossi's team having a chance to rise two points from fifth-placed Atalanta if they win. However, Torino staff member Michele Orecchio was seen hiding and taking notes at Roma's training ground over the weekend, disrupting their plans, according to Cortto Mercato Web.

When Real Madrid Perez' president announced a new European Super League on Spanish television in April 2021, he was on the brink of ruin. We'll be dead in 2024,' says the poet.' Well, we're now in 2024, and Real Madrid isn't dead, as it turns out. They aren't even resting in Monty Python-speak. On the other hand, they have just agreed to a five-year contract with the world's most expensive player.

The draw took place at UEFA's headquarters in Switzerland on Friday morning on the back of the second legs of the play-off rounds, which concluded on Wednesday. The Reds were one of four seeded British teams in the draw, as well as West Ham, Brighton, and Rangers, who all won their groups during the qualification season last year. That meant they advanced to the last 16 as seeded teams, only to be drawn against unseeded teams who had been successful from the play-off round this week, including AC Milan and Roma.

After being fired by Roma's owners last month, Jose Mourinho has struck out at the club's executives. Mourinho was fired on January 17 after a 3-1 loss at AC Milan, leaving Roma ninth in the table, just two days after comparing himself to Harry Potter for raising hopes at the club. Mourinho's owners, American businessman Dan and Ryan Friedkin, appeared to disagree, but the Portuguese boss retaliate, claiming his dismissal was 'unfair.'

According to reports, the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia - Newcastle United's owners, is going to make an offer on AS Roma. PIF has made significant financial investments in numerous sports, particularly football, where they already own the big four clubs in the Saudi Pro League, and a consortium led by the sovereign wealth fund acquired Newcastle in October 2021. According to Italy's news, they are also keen to purchase Roma from its new American owner and invest in the club's stadium.

After going forehead to forehead, Lukaku had to be separate from Yerry Mina, and Paredes was later arrested for a match against Nahitan Nandez. Roma won three straight games under De Rossi, who took over Jose Mourinho in the dugout in January. Even though he was a notoriously bad-tempered guy himself, he reiterated the importance of his players to keep their cool - even when playing away from a game.

Juventus defeated Lecce 2-1, leaving second-place Inter Milan one point behind with a game in hand. Massimiliano Allegri's team beat them 3-0 on their ride to the Stadio Via del mare, thanks to a brace from Dusan Vlahovic and a late strike from Bremer. AC Milan won in a five-goal thriller, with former Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek on the scoresheet on the day.

Former Roma coach Jose Mourinho was paid their respects on Saturday in the club's first game since the Portuguese head coach was fired by the Italian giants. Daniele De Rossi, Roma's legendary midfielder, has been put in intermediate charge until the end of the season, but fans at the Stadio Olimpico on Saturday's match against Verona expressed their displeasure.

Daniele De Rossi, ALVISE CAGNAZZO, is yet another risk for Roma, a club that must reunite the followers and aim to get as far as possible in Serie A and Europe. The former Giallorossi captain has just returned from short and fleeting stints as a mentor, and perhaps does not have the right pedigree to be considered up to the challenge. He failed in one of Serie B's most difficult clubs due to the lack of pressure applied by the fans. De Rossi, an assistant with Italy's national team, never had any decision-making authority, and his fiery approach to football may have fulfilled another individual's ambition for the Friedkin Group - Roma's American owners.

Mourinho was fired by Roma on Tuesday, making the club's ninth in the Serie A table, and Daniele De Rossi came to replace him just hours later. The Portuguese coach was seen leaving the training ground with tears in his eyes on Tuesday - and he's since delivered a cryptic farewell letter to the followers, which read: "Sudore, sangue, lacrime, allegria, amoR, fratelli, cuore, eternita.' It was the sixth dismissal of the 60-year-old's career, and there is no uncertain destination for where the former Chelsea, Manchester United, and Real Madrid manager might move next.

Between 2001 and 2019, the club legend has played in Roma's midfield for more than 600 times. Since joining the club's academy in 2000, he went on to captain the squad and win two Coppa Italias before leaving for Boca Juniors. He does, however, have little coaching experience having spent time with the Italian federation and SPAL's Serie B team, who sacked him a year ago. According to the Athletic, however, he seems to have been able to find his dream job at Roma.

Despite demanding a new deal, Chelsea, Man United, and Tottenham boss was relieved of his jobs with the Serie A team, who currently sits ninth in the league table. The sacking of a coach who'wrote an unforgettable tale' by leading the team to two European finals was highlighted today by Italian newspapers. Now, Mourinho, who was seen screaming with tears in his eyes yesterday, has sent the supporters a cryptic farewell. 'Sudore, sangue, lacrime, allegria, amoR, fratelli, storia, eternità, eternità, he captioned it on Instagram.'

After Roma fired him with the club languishing ninth in the Serie A table, Jose Mourinho has become the 'Fired One'. Mourinho's destiny was sealed after a poor run in six league matches, although they fell farther behind in the race for European qualification. Mourinho, the former Chelsea and Manchester United manager, helped Roma win the Europa Conference League during their first season as their coach.

Following his dismissal earlier this week, Jose Mourinho took to social media to honor his time as Roma's head coach. In his first two seasons as Portuguese emperor, he had a blast leading the Giallorossi, including winning the inaugural Europa Conference League title in 2021-2022. However, although improving the Italian side in his second term as president, events began to derail in his third campaign.

Despite applying for a new contract, the Portuguese manager was forced to leave his position with the Serie A side, who currently sits ninth in the league table. It comes after his constant media guerrilla warfare angered the club's Americans, and he left fans ecstatic after five red cards during his tenure as coach. Since winning only one of their last six games, Rob's last game in charge was against AC Milan, who was compelled to watch from the stands due to suspension. Mourinho's eyes welled up when he was given a farewell by fans, but a new video of him leaving the training ground with tears in his eyes has surfaced.

Following the club's 3-1 loss to AC Milan, Jose Mourinho was fired by Roma on Tuesday morning. Chelsea and Manchester United's former bosses had only won one of their previous six league games, and they were also kicked out of the Coppa Italia by arch-rivals Lazio last week. Roma have won just eight of their 20 games in Serie A this season, placing them behind Bologna, Atalanta, and Fiorentina in the European qualification race.

ALVISE CAGNAZZO: Roma have been like the Titanic, beautiful and fragile, but not have brave captains eager to save it. Many players don't appear to have leadership abilities, and the team is entrusted to do-good but partially naive guys. His way of playing football became predictable as a result of his time at Tottenham and other clubs. Mourinho argued with the referees and his diplomatic links with Roma deteriorated over time.
