Ranieri received a hero’s welcome from Roma fans at the airport, who greeted the veteran coach with enthusiasm, recalling fond memories from his previous stints in charge. Ranieri managed Roma from 2009 to 2011, leading them to a Serie A runners-up finish, and briefly returned in 2019 to stabilize the club during a challenging period.
"A difficult task lies ahead. That’s why they called me. We are ready. Let’s move forward," Ranieri told Ansa, showing his determination despite announcing his retirement from coaching earlier this year.
The appointment has sparked optimism among Roma supporters, who see Ranieri's experience and deep connection with the club as the perfect antidote to their current struggles. Fans will hope his leadership can bring stability and inspire a turnaround for the Giallorossi.
