Angeloni rules out Roma move, commits future to Fiorentina

Source: Forza Roma

Valentino Angeloni, head of Fiorentina's youth academy, has publicly distanced himself from a potential move to AS Roma. Speaking at the Serie A Festival in Parma, Angeloni made clear his intention to remain in Florence and focus on his work with the club's leadership. Roma had been searching for a new youth sector director following the departure of Claudio Ranieri and the collapse of an agreement with Massimo Tarantino.

Angeloni's rejection eliminates one of the primary candidates on Roma's shortlist, which also included Frara. Despite acknowledging Roma's prestige and his personal connection to the capital—he was born in Rome and played for Roma as a child—Angeloni emphasized his commitment to Fiorentina's project. He stated: "I'm staying in Florence, and that's my wish. The Roma rumours are flattering, of course—I was born in Rome and played as a child at Roma with Anzalone, it's an important club, but so is Fiorentina and I'm focused on what I've done, must do, and will do here. I'm working with Paratici and his entire department on Fiorentina's future. I'm very focused on what I'm doing, I like it very much, in a fantastic environment."

The development marks another setback in Roma's efforts to rebuild their youth academy structure after recent managerial transitions.

Il capo del settore giovanile viola manda un messaggio preciso sul suo futuro Redazione 6 giugno - 20:05 Gasperini: "L'Inter può fare quello che vuole, Mancini non ci va" Con il naufragio dell'accordo con Massimo Tarantino dopo l'addio di Claudio Ranieri alla Roma, il club giallorosso è ancora in cerca del nuovo responsabile del settore giovanile. Oltre a Frara, il nome forte è quello di Valentino Angeloni ora a capo del vivaio della Fiorentina. È stato lui stesso ad allontanare il suo possibile arrivo a Trigoria in un'intervista a 'Gazzetta Regionale' a margine del Festival della Serie A a Parma: "Sto a Firenze, rimango a Firenze ed è il mio desiderio. Le voci sulla Roma fanno piacere, è ovvio, sono nato a Roma e ho giocato da bambino alla Roma, con Anzalone, è un club importante ma lo è anche la Fiorentina e sono concentrato su quello che ho fatto, devo fare e farò qui. Sto lavorando con Paratici e tutta l’area che lui dirige per il futuro della Fiorentina. Sono molto concentrato su quello che sto facendo, mi piace tantissimo, in un ambiente fantastico. Non lo so, sono concentrato su questo". © RIPRODUZIONE RISERVATA Commenta Continua la lettura News AS Roma Totti e la Champions: "Roma, che brava".

D'Amico Deal Nears Final Stage; Greenwood Price Tag €55 Million, Paixão as Backup Plan

AS Roma's pursuit of a new sporting director is approaching conclusion. Tony D'Amico is currently in Bergamo negotiating the termination of his contract with Atalanta, a necessary step before he can officially join Roma as director of sport. The two clubs have yet to reach full agreement, however, with D'Amico expected to forfeit certain monthly payments as part of the exit deal. Atalanta president Luca Percassi is reportedly unwilling to expedite the arrangement, which may delay D'Amico's arrival at Roma until 1 July, when he will gain full decision-making authority at the club. Meanwhile, head coach Gian Piero Gasperini continues to pursue English winger Mason Greenwood as a primary transfer target. Marseille has set Greenwood's asking price at €55 million. Should that move prove unfeasible, Roma has identified Peixoto (referred to as Paixão in transfer discussions) as a backup option. Complications have also emerged at Fenerbahçe, where uncertainty surrounds which of two candidates will secure the English player's signature.
