Ranieri linked with Roma return

According to recent reports over in Italy, Claudio Ranieri has been linked with a return to former club Roma. The 67 year old recently lost his job with Fulham, after failing to guide the Premier League club away from the relegation zone. Roma, on the other hand, are considering a change of management following their 3-0 loss to Lazio under the guidance of Eusebio Di Francesco.

Ranieri spent two years managing Roma between 2009 and 2011, and also played for them briefly back in the early 70s. Claudio was also born in the city, and has a great deal of experience managing in Italian football.

Despite this, the belief is that he’d only be brought in on an interim basis if Roma did decide to pull the trigger on the deal.

Ranieri’s last great accomplishment in management came back in 2016, when he helped to guide underdogs Leicester City towards an astonishing Premier League title triumph.
