Serie A club Roma is experiencing a period of elevated tension between Claudio Ranieri and Gian Piero Gasperini over the past two weeks. However, it appears that the club’s senior advisor will not be dismissed by the ownership.
La Gazzetta dello Sport has closely examined the situation, confirming that Ranieri retains the trust of the Friedkin family, irrespective of recent events. The American owners are keen for both Gasperini and Ranieri to collaborate at least until the conclusion of the current season. They hope the two will develop a more amicable working relationship. It is also understood that Ranieri’s post-match comments following the game against Pisa were his method of protecting the players, particularly in light of Gasperini’s reportedly critical assessment of the squad.
Furthermore, Ranieri is eager to demonstrate his value in his advisory position. He is under contract until 2027, and the Friedkins have consulted numerous sources regarding Ranieri’s character, receiving exclusively positive feedback. This confidence is why he is expected to remain in Rome through the end of the season, and potentially beyond.
