D'Amico's appointment delayed as Atalanta slows contract exit negotiations

Source: Forza Roma

AS Roma's planned director of sport D'Amico has not yet been officially announced, with the announcement now expected on Monday. The delay stems from ongoing negotiations between D'Amico and Atalanta over the termination of his contract with the Bergamo club. According to reports, D'Amico is being asked to forgo some monthly payments, and Atalanta's president Luca Percassi has shown little inclination to expedite Roma's request. The slowdown has created a bureaucratic complication: Roma was unable to request a league dispensation during yesterday's League Assembly.

Without such a dispensation, D'Amico cannot officially operate as director of sport until 1 July. Until then, he will lack the power to sign documents or submit formal written offers—functions currently handled by CFO Morrow. Another League Assembly in coming weeks is unlikely, meaning D'Amico will have to wait until July and Atalanta's formal clearance to assume full authority. Following his eventual announcement, he will be able to work behind the scenes and discuss player renewals, but full operational powers remain contingent on the summer date and Atalanta's approval.

L'annuncio slitta a lunedì Redazione 6 giugno - 07:29 Ecco D'Amico: il nuovo braccio destro di Gasperini È passato un altro giorno e dell’annuncio di D’Amico ancora non c’è traccia. Una fase di stallo che non preoccupa i protagonisti, ma che rallenta e non poco il lavoro da fare. L’accordo tra il ds e l’Atalanta per la risoluzione del contratto ancora non è stato trovato, ufficialmente per motivi burocratici che tradotto significa per motivi economici, scrive Daniele Aloisi su Il Messaggero. D’Amico dovrebbe rinunciare ad alcune mensilità, sperava di poter trovare una quadra in tempi rapidi anche grazie all’ottimo rapporto con la proprietà ma non aveva fatto i conti con Luca Percassi che non ha tutta questa voglia di semplificare la vita alla Roma. Il club giallorosso attende in questa negoziazione a tre, ma il rallentamento non ha permesso di poter richiedere - durante l’Assemblea di Lega di ieri - la deroga. Senza di quella il ds per poter operare ufficialmente dovrà aspettare il 1 luglio. Non potrà avere potere di firma (per quello c’è il CFO Morrow) oppure inviare offerte scritte. A meno che non venga indetta un’altra assemblea nelle prossime settimane (difficile se non impossibile) D’Amico rimarrà senza. Dopo l’annuncio (atteso a questo punto lunedì) potrà lavorare dietro le quinte, parlare con i giocatori per i rinnovi, ma per avere i pieni poteri di un direttore sportivo dovrà comunque attendere luglio e il via libera dell'Atalanta. © RIPRODUZIONE RISERVATA Commenta Continua la lettura Il Messaggero Mancini resta: Gasperini lo blinda e rinnovo vicino Calciomercato AS Roma Fenerbahce, Safi svela l'accordo con Greenwood e annuncia: "Pronti a chiudere con l'OM" News AS Roma Greenwood si complica: accordo col Fenerbahce.

Le Fée explains decision to join Roma and departure after six months

Enzo Le Fée, the midfielder who left AS Roma after just six months, has revealed his initial reluctance to play in Italian football and what changed his mind. Speaking in an interview, Le Fée admitted: "From a young age I always said I would never play in Italy, because I did not consider the league to be at a high level because of the way teams play." However, his agent informed him that Roma wanted to sign him, and a conversation with Daniele De Rossi proved decisive. "I spoke with De Rossi and it was incredible. So I said: 'Ok, let's go'," Le Fée recalled. Le Fée's time at Roma proved difficult and ultimately short-lived. The midfielder experienced an injury setback early in his tenure and encountered instability in the coaching position. He described his struggle: "In the first match I felt cramps after 55 minutes, I was tired. In the second game I came on and injured my knee. When I returned there was another coach: I played a couple of matches, then the club took another coach and I no longer played." Le Fée has since joined Southampton in England, where he reunited with manager Régis Le Bris. His departure marks the end of a disappointing chapter for both the player and the club, with injuries and multiple managerial changes contributing to his inability to establish himself in the Roma squad.
