Daniele De Rossi says his only priorities as the new Roma coach are to ‘fight for our goals and try to achieve them.’
The 2006 Italy World Cup winner was appointed as the new Giallorossi boss until the end of the season, replacing José Mourinho.
“I would like to thank the Friedkin family for entrusting me with the responsibility of Roma’s head coach role. From my side, I know no other way but dedication, daily sacrifices, and giving everything I have in order to face the challenges that await us from now until the end of the season,” said De Rossi.
“The excitement of being able to sit on our bench is indescribable. Everyone knows what Roma means to me. However, the work that awaits us all has already taken precedence.
“We have no time or choice but to be competitive, fight for our goals, and try to achieve them, which are the only priorities my staff and I have set for ourselves.”
