The contract has a clause: Vincenzo Montella's tenure as the national team coach may come to an end.

Starting the season with Daniele De Rossi and later not getting what he wanted from Ivan Juric, Roma appointed Claudio Ranieri as the head coach until the end of the season. Continuing their search for a coach for the next season, Roma is not giving up on the head coach of our national team, Vincenzo Montella.

RANIERI WILL BE IN MANAGEMENT NEXT SEASON

Ranieri, who took over the team until the end of the season, will be part of the management at the end of the season and will play an influential role in determining the new head coach. In his statement, Ranieri said, "I will resign from coaching at the end of the season. It is time to say enough. Roma is looking for a new head coach who can elevate the team to an elite level in Italy and Europe."

THE NUMBER ONE CANDIDATE IS MONTELLA

According to Italian media Calciomercato, the name currently at the top of the list of candidates for the head coach position at Roma, which has reached a consensus, is the national team head coach Vincenzo Montella. The Italian club had contacted Montella after Daniele De Rossi's departure in September, but it was noted that the Friedkin family, the club's owners, were not willing to pay the release clause in the 50-year-old coach's contract at that time.

CLAIM OF A CLAUSE IN HIS CONTRACT

Corriere dello Sport previously suggested in a November report about Montella and Roma that the successful coach has a release fee in his contract. Additionally, it was claimed in that report that Vincenzo Montella could be released on the condition that his 6-month salary is paid to the Turkish Football Federation (TFF).

ANCELOTTI IS NOT IMPOSSIBLE

It has been reported that Carlo Ancelotti, who is expected to leave Real Madrid, is also among the candidates for the head coach position at Roma. Although the 65-year-old coach was previously seen as impossible due to his contract with Real Madrid until 2026, it has been noted that it is not considered impossible at the moment, especially after the recent discussions about his future at Real Madrid following the matches against Barcelona.

THERE ARE DOUBTS ABOUT MANCINI

Another name that has come up in the Italian club is Roberto Mancini, who has left his position in Saudi Arabia. It has been reported that the 60-year-old coach's request for a long contract and high salary, along with his past with Lazio, has raised questions and discussions on the Roma side.
