Euro 2020 Winner Roberto Mancini Linked with Roma Managerial Role
AS Roma appears ready to make a managerial change, with La Gazzetta dello Sport reporting that Ivan Jurić is likely to be sacked following Sunday’s Serie A fixture against Bologna. The club has reportedly opened discussions with Euro 2020-winning coach Roberto Mancini as a potential replacement.

Since taking over from Daniele De Rossi in mid-September, Jurić has failed to stabilize the team, securing only four wins in 11 matches across all competitions, alongside three draws and four defeats. Italian media outlets suggest there is a 99% chance of his dismissal, citing Roma’s disappointing form as the catalyst for the decision.
Mancini, who recently departed his role as head coach of Saudi Arabia, is believed to be Roma’s top target. The former Italy manager has reportedly requested a two-year contract with the option for a one-year extension.
Mancini’s illustrious coaching career includes a Premier League title with Manchester City and leading Italy to their Euro 2020 triumph. His wealth of experience and track record of success make him a strong candidate to guide Roma back to form in Serie A and beyond.
