Roma chief government Lina Souloukou has stepped down, the Serie A membership said on Sunday, following fan anger over the sacking of supervisor Daniele De Rossi final Wednesday.
“We thank Lina for her devoted service throughout a important interval for the membership and need her the very best in her future endeavours,” Roma stated in a brief assertion on their web site.
Italian media stated police had been assessing whether or not Souloukou had wanted enhanced safety after a threatening banner appeared on the membership’s coaching floor.
The Greek sports activities lawyer bore the brunt of fan fury over the dismissal of membership stalwart De Rossi following a winless run in Roma’s first 4 Serie A matches of the season.
De Rossi, who spent practically 20 years at Roma as a participant, took over as head coach in January after Jose Mourinho was fired. He was changed by former Torino supervisor Ivan Juric, who led Roma to a 3-0 win over Udinese on Sunday, the staff’s first victory of the Serie A season.
Souloukou had been employed in April 2023 by the American Friedkin household, the house owners of Roma. She was beforehand the chief government of Greek membership Olympiacos.
