Roma market, Gasperini vs Ranieri in Highlander style: only one will remain

Roma fans were convinced that, thanks to the two of them, they would celebrate great triumphs. Instead, a frost has fallen between Gian Piero Gasperini and Claudio Ranieri. The relationship between the two, in light of the latest statements by the Giallorossi’s senior advisor, has plummeted. Clearly, at this point, one of the two is too much in the capital.

“I chose 5-6 coaches, three did not come. The club chose Gasperini. We chose him because of what he had done at Atalanta: starting with young people and slowly taking them to big stages. I stopped coaching for this, if we have to lose a year of building I do it gladly. We expected just that: we took young people, Gasperini and I chose the players. There was not a player who came without his approval,” the harsh words of Claudio Ranieri that, of course, have sparked a real ruckus.

There are those who are on the side of the technician, speaking of “own goal” of the manager and those, on the other hand, who think that the words of Claudio Ranieri were appropriate, far too soft. Result? Only one will remain, as in the film Highlander from back in 1986. To be understood, who will be among the two who will not have to pack up at the end of the current season.

To think that the tear can be sewn up is rather utopian. Perhaps only by winning a place in the next Champions League would there be room for a clarifying confrontation. If not, the duo could really part ways. And to say that, together, they had begun a truly ambitious and special journey. About eight months after their first meeting, everything has changed.
