The reasons behind Ghisolfi's possible farewell
After a long transition period, Roma could lose two key figures from its current management. Lawyer Lorenzo Vitali, interim CEO after Souloukou's exit, and Florent Ghisolfi, the club's sporting director, are both said to be at risk. Advertisement Ghisolfi's position is particularly delicate. According to Il Messaggero, the Friedkin ownership did not appreciate the way the negotiations for the renewal of Mile Svilar were handled, which was resolved only thanks to the intervention of Claudio Ranieri. Furthermore, the failed transfer of Angeliño to Al Hilal, which seemed to be finalized, has also earned him a lot of criticism. Faced with these uncertainties, Frederic Massara has been linked as Ghisolfi's replacement – Massara previously worked at Trigoria during the Pallotta era and recently concluded a short-lived chapter at Stade Rennais.
