Better than Jose Mourinho?! Roma confirm Daniele De Rossi to remain as manager beyond end of Serie A season

Europa League

Union St.Gilloise

Roma

In February, I Giallorossi signed De Rossi to a contract until the end of the season, and they have now confirmed that they have handed an extension to the 40-year-old as they want him to stay with the club for next season and for the 'foreseeable future'.

WHAT HAPPENED?

De Rossi replaced Jose Mourinho and took over a team that was ninth in the league rankings. Following a seven-game league unbeaten streak, Roma has risen to fifth place in the standings under the former Italy international. They have also advanced to the Europa League semi-final after beating AC Milan in the quarter-final.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Speaking ahead of the clash against Milan, De Rossi said <a href="https://romapress.net/daniele-de-rossi-ahead-of-milan-return-leg-my-renewal-a-huge-confidence-boost/" target="_blank">[via RomaPress]</a>: "The announcement? It means that I am here to stay and continue serving as Roma’s head coach. It’s also a way of saying that not everything depends on tonight. For me it’s a huge confidence boost."My staff and I convinced the President in 3 months and doing so before this match is a gigantic demonstration of trust. I haven’t had time to celebrate this announcement because my mind is only focused on Milan."

WHAT DE ROSSI SAID

Roma will now be in action when they host the in-form Bologna side in Serie A action on Monday, April 22 as they look to hunt down Thiago Motta's side for the last Champions League spots.
