After a slight period of calm, Eusebio Di Francesco (49 years old) would once again be in the hot seat. With the defeat of the last weekend against Udinese (1-0, 13th round of Serie A), the coach of Roma would have grilled his last joker. Under contract until June 2020 with the Giallorossi, the former coach of Sassuolo, Lecce and Pescara have today two games to try to rectify the shot. But, in case of new cons-performances against Real Madrid (5th day of the Champions League group stage) and Inter Milan (14th round of Serie A), the successor of Luciano Spalletti could well end up take the door.

Di Francesco replaced by the Portuguese Sousa (ex-Fiorentina)?

While Daniele De Rossi's teammates point to a disappointing seventh place in the league, with … eighteen points behind Juventus Turin from Massimiliano AllegriEusebio Di Francesco would not be allowed to make a mistake against Merengue and Nerazzurri. According to the information of our colleagues The Gazzetta dello Sport, the Italian technician would be confident to be able to count on the support of his team, but his situation would remain most worrying. While the sports director Monchi could be tempted to pack his bags with him, the club Louve could opt for the Portuguese Paulo Sousa (48 years) to take over. Free from any commitment since the end of his experience with Tianjin Quanjian (CSL), the native of Viseu (ex-Fiorentina) would represent the plan B of Roman leaders, although other profiles would also be studied in the face of poor results partners of the Bosnian Edin Dzeko.
