De Rossi Commits To Roma With New Contract Through 2027

Daniele De Rossi has committed to staying as Roma's coach until 2027. The former player, who spent 18 seasons with Roma, took over the coaching role in January after Jose Mourinho's departure. Under his guidance, Roma secured a sixth-place finish in Serie A and reached the Europa League semi-finals, where they were defeated by Bayer Leverkusen.

The Friedkin Group, owners of Roma, had expressed their desire to continue with De Rossi before the second leg of the Europa League quarter-finals. Their intentions materialised into a three-year contract extension for De Rossi, which he signed with enthusiasm. The club stated: "Continua la simbiosi naturale con questa squadra, la sua squadra."

Roma announced on Tuesday that De Rossi had signed the new deal. The club emphasised the natural connection between De Rossi and the team. "La Roma Daniele De Rossi firma il rinnovo di contratto fino al 2027," read a tweet from AS Roma's official account.

In addition to confirming De Rossi's extended tenure, Roma revealed that striker Andrea Belotti had transferred to newly promoted Como. Como is currently managed by former footballer Cesc Fabregas.

The 40-year-old coach has shown dedication to his role and team. His leadership helped Roma achieve significant milestones last season despite falling short in the Europa League semi-finals.

Andrea Belotti's move marks a new chapter for both him and Como. The striker will now play under Cesc Fabregas' management, bringing experience and skill to the newly promoted side.

De Rossi’s contract extension reflects the club’s confidence in his abilities. His history with Roma as a player and now as a coach underscores his deep connection with the team.

This new deal ensures stability for Roma’s future plans. It also highlights the trust placed in De Rossi’s vision for the team’s development over the next few years.

The announcement of Belotti’s transfer came alongside news of De Rossi’s contract renewal. Both moves indicate strategic decisions aimed at strengthening their respective teams.

Roma fans can look forward to seeing how De Rossi continues to shape the team. His commitment until 2027 promises continuity and potential growth for the club.

The Friedkin Group’s support for De Rossi has been clear since before their Europa League quarter-final match. This backing has now been formalised through his contract extension.

As Roma prepares for upcoming seasons under De Rossi’s leadership, expectations are high. The club aims to build on last season’s achievements and strive for greater success domestically and in Europe.

This period marks an exciting time for both Roma and Como as they embark on new journeys with their respective coaches and players.
