De Rossi and the Fate of His Contract with Roma:
The question of whether Daniele De Rossi will renew his contract as a coach with Roma may soon be answered. The pivotal date for the Friedkin family’s decision is fast approaching.
Decisive Matches against Milan:
Interestingly, the outcome of the upcoming double-match against Milan could play a critical role in determining De Rossi’s future with Roma. The two-match slugfest against Pioli’s team could decide whether De Rossi remains a Roman or not. Enlightened by his impressive performance so far, it is clear that De Rossi knows that these crucial games could directly affect his contract.
First Game at San Siro, The Challenge for Pioli:
The first match at San Siro promises to be a do-or-die encounter and a stiff test for even the bravest of hearts. Pioli is seemingly unsure of how Roma, under the fresh leadership of De Rossi, will perform. Had Mourinho been in charge, the game approach would have been the 3-5-2 formation with little or no room for alterations. But things have changed under the new coach, potentially posing a challenge for the red-and-black coach.
Milan’s Role in De Rossi’s Roma Renewal:
De Rossi’s love for Roma has never been in question, and he has demonstrated his desire to stay through his fantastic work on the pitch, which can’t be hidden: in 11 league games, he led his team to 26 points, suffering only one defeat against Inter. As De Rossi’s merits become more apparent, fans have begun to wonder – would the current scenario be different if he had been made coach from the start? While this question remains unanswered, De Rossi’s popularity with Roma fans continues to soar rapidly, replacing the affection reserved for Mourinho.
Uniting the Team and Looking to the Future:
Currently, the Roma fanbase is thoroughly smitten with De Rossi. More than that, De Rossi’s charismatic leadership and entrancing project has successfully engaged every player on his team. He heavily leans on his team in his efforts to persuade the Friedkins to keep him on as coach. Clearing this round of matches would bring not only pride to Roma but also provide a substantial financial boost of approximately 2.8million euros. This could be the final piece of the puzzle to settle contract renewal matters with De Rossi and to begin planning for the coming season.
