Castellitto: "In Life You Must Choose and We Must Believe in Gasperini"

Source: Forza Roma

Italian actor and director Sergio Castellitto, a longtime AS Roma supporter, has expressed his backing for Gian Piero Gasperini amid uncertainty surrounding the club's managerial situation. Speaking at the premiere of the television series "In Utero," Castellitto addressed the comparison between Gasperini and Claudio Ranieri, two candidates linked with Roma's future direction. Castellitto acknowledged that both Gasperini and Ranieri are "gentlemen" who have shown affection for Roma and contributed positively to the club. However, he emphasized that a clear choice must be made, and he personally believes the club should commit to Gasperini. The actor expressed regret that Ranieri, despite his previous service to Roma, may not be the chosen path forward. Castellitto's position reflects confidence in Gasperini's abilities as a manager and his potential to achieve significant results if given the proper conditions and support. Castellitto's comments suggest ongoing deliberation at Roma regarding the managerial appointment. His public statement, made to the AGI news agency, carries weight given his high profile and long-standing association with the club. The situation indicates Roma's leadership is weighing their options between experienced candidates, with Gasperini apparently emerging as a preferred choice among some influential Roma figures.

AS Roma Participates in Earth Day 2026 Cleanup on Tiber River, Collects Over 90kg of Waste

AS Roma partnered with AMA (Rome's municipal waste management company) and Ogyre to organize an environmental cleanup initiative along the Tiber River on April 22 for Earth Day 2026. The activity took place at the Foro Italico park, just hundreds of meters from the Olimpico Stadium. Young players from Roma's academy, including Under-13 and Under-14 age groups, along with male Under-17 players Corredera and Saviano, and female Under-19 players Parente and Terlizzi, participated in collecting waste from the riverbanks. The cleanup effort aligns with Roma's climate emergency policy and their broader sustainability strategy. The club is working toward a mission launched with Ogyre to collect 30,000kg of marine and coastal waste by June 2026. By removing litter from river areas before it reaches the sea, the initiative aims to protect aquatic ecosystems and prevent further pollution. Ogyre representatives Alice Casella and Marta Berardini provided education about the global plastic crisis. Participants collected over 90kg of waste, including a shopping cart and plastic table, which were sorted and documented. AMA provided special virtual reality viewers to show participants the journey of collected waste through the recycling process. All waste data was recorded and shared with the European Environment Agency's Citizen Science platform for monitoring pollution dispersal along rivers and beaches. The event combined environmental education with friendly competition, featuring Roma's mascot Romolo.
