Rome, 23 April 2026 \u2013 New tensions in the Rome, and this time the epilogue \u2013 according to rumours from Trigoria \u2013 could even be the divorce from Claudio RanieriRumors of a split spread late this afternoon, and an official statement from the club is expected to be forthcoming.<\/p>\n

It would still be about to end in a sensational way. controversy which he has opposed in recent weeks Claudio Ranieri and Gian Piero Gasperini.<\/p>\n

Sir Claudio, protagonist of last year’s sensational ride which brought Roma one step away from the Champions League And today, the Giallorossi’s iconic figure is about to end his relationship with the club. We’re just waiting for AS Roma’s official statement.<\/p>\n

The Friedkins have chosen to end their relationship with the senior adviser after the increasingly evident rift with the coach, calling on him to resign.<\/p>\n

Last April 9th, in the press conference on the eve of Roma-Pisa, Ranieri explained in an interview that five or six coaches had been evaluated, three of which had turned them down, and that in the end the club had chosen Gasperini. On that same occasion, Ranieri effectively called him the “fourth choice” of the summer, a formula later taken up by several newspapers in the story of the clash with Gasperini: “We chose him for what he had done at Atalanta”Start with the young players and slowly bring them to the big stages,” he said. Ranieri then clarified that he was the owners’ advisor and not Gasperini’s, marking a clear distance between the two roles.<\/p>\n

Ranieri claimed to have participated in the transfer market decisions, arguing that no player would arrive without Gasperini’s approval. At the same time, he defended the company’s line, explaining that financial fair play constraints had limited operational possibilities.<\/p>\n

Gian Piero Gasperini He tried to tone things down, publicly denying the existence of any disagreements with Ranieri, but the political message had already been sent, and no one at Roma could pretend the problem didn’t exist. The affair thus quickly took on the character of an internal showdown.<\/p>\n

Ranieri, for years a guarantee figure, is\u00a0gone from a symbolic man to a figure perceived as cumbersome in the club’s new equilibrium. The paradox is that the very coach who had helped Roma regain order has become the center of a rift.<\/p>\n

The club’s decision to rely on Gasperini, indicated by Ranieri as a shared option but not directly desired by him, changed the balance and ushered in a phase in which every statement became a test of strength. Meanwhile, the pitch, after an initial exciting phase for the fans, did not offer a series of disappointments which also compromised the apparent internal serenity of the club.<\/p>\n

The problem, in fact, wasn’t just performance, but the impossible coexistence of two overly powerful figures. Ranieri maintained his line, Gasperini defended his independence, the owners observed. Until today, when the decision came like a bolt from the blue: to sever the relationship with Ranieri to end the conflict and safeguard the technical project.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, there are already rumours circulating about the future that they would like him on the national team bench, with Giovanni Malag\u00f2 president of the FIGC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rome, 23 April 2026 \u2013 New tensions in the Rome, and this time the epilogue \u2013 according to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10125,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[7448,7447,7446,1362,7449,1127,5122,43,27],"class_list":{"0":"post-10124","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-rome","8":"tag-clash","9":"tag-decisive-step","10":"tag-farewell","11":"tag-gasperini","12":"tag-hypothesis","13":"tag-national-team","14":"tag-ranieri","15":"tag-roma","16":"tag-rome"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/italy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10124","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/italy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/italy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/italy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/italy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10124"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/italy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10124\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/italy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/italy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10124"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/italy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10124"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/italy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10124"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
