Friedkin's Endless Revolution: Over 20 Departures From Fienga to Ranieri

Source: Forza Roma

AS Roma's ownership under the Friedkin family has overseen significant personnel turnover since the summer of 2020, with more than 20 figures departing from various departments. Beyond Ranieri's recent exit, sporting director Massara is also reportedly close to leaving the club. The departures span executives, coaches, youth development staff, marketing personnel, and administrative roles, reflecting sustained restructuring across multiple levels of the organization.

Over the past five years, Roma has cycled through numerous administrative leaders including Lina Souloukou and Guido Fienga, as well as youth sector officials and marketing staff. The coaching position has proved particularly unstable, with six different managers in six seasons: Fonseca, Mourinho, De Rossi, Ranieri, Juric, and now Gasperini. However, the latest managerial change appears different — for the first time, the club's ownership seems committed to providing sustained backing to the head coach rather than pursuing immediate change.

Other departures have included multiple sporting directors such as Petrachi, Tiago Pinto, and Ghisolfi, as well as the late Maurizio Costanzo, who served as a communications consultant. The pattern of constant change across departments suggests ongoing structural reorganization under Friedkin ownership.

Stavolta però c'è fiducia nel tecnico, una novità Redazione 24 aprile - 11:14 Via Ranieri e probabilmente anche Massara. I Friedkin cambiano ancora, ma per la prima volta daranno fiducia all'allenatore. Nel frattempo però dall’estate del 2020 ad oggi, sono tante le figure che sono entrate e uscite da Trigoria in un battito di ciglia. Prima di Ranieri, nel ruolo poco definitivo di dirigente o consulente amministrativo si sono alternati Lina Souloukou, Guido Fienga, ma anche Calvo, Berardi, il direttore degli affari esterni Scalera. Cambiamenti anche le settore giovanile: a Trigoria hanno lavorato il responsabile del vivaio Vergine e l’ex figura di raccordo Morgan De Sanctis. Poi il settore marketing con Wendell, Zubiria e van de Doel. Infine il team manager Gombar e l’avvocato Vitali. Ovviamente anche i direttori sportivi: Petrachi (che era però già sulla via dell'addio al termine dell'era Pallotta), Tiago Pinto, Ghisolfi e appunto Massara ormai vicino all'addio. C’è stato spazio anche per il compianto Maurizio Costanzo, per circa un anno consulente della comunicazione della società. Senza dimenticare i diversi allenatori in pochi anni, esattamente 6 in 6 stagioni: Fonseca, Mourinho, De Rossi, Ranieri, Juric e ora Gasperini. Che per la prima volta però sembra saldo al timone. E questo potrebbe fare tutta la differenza del mondo.Leggi anche Addio Ranieri, in ballo il settore giovanile: rischia Tarantino, spera Bruno Conti Massara rischia grosso: da Giuntoli a Manna e D’Amico, ecco le idee di Gasp © RIPRODUZIONE RISERVATA

Roma to face Cannes in July friendly; Greenwood pursuit continues amid financial planning

Roma have confirmed a pre-season friendly against Cannes on 26 July at home. Both clubs are owned by the Friedkin Group. The Giallorossi declined a proposed friendly at Newcastle's St James' Park but will face Borussia Dortmund on 15 August, a week before Serie A begins. Coach Gasperini's squad is taking shape ahead of the new campaign. In the transfer market, Roma continue to monitor Mason Greenwood's situation. The English forward will leave Marseille, and Fenerbahçe remain interested despite their recent election result. The club's new president, Aziz Yildirim, stated: "If Greenwood will be useful to us, we will take him. We will review the squad construction with our committee and make a decision." The Friedkin Group is also considering extending Roma's financial settlement agreement to manage fair play compliance. Additionally, Roma are following developments around Aseko and Favasuli in the market. Midfielder Robinio Vaz, born in 2007, may leave on loan, with Roma open to discussions. Details on other targets remain unclear at this stage.
