Last night, the coach flew to London and met with club owner Dan Friedkin, where he took on the responsibility and agreed personal terms.

His contract expires at the end of the current season, with Ranieri reportedly set to take up a position on the board from next season onwards.

He was at the airport on his way back to Roma on Wednesday when he was stopped by a journalist from ANSA.

They told him that this was a difficult problem to deal with in a team that was facing major problems.

“That’s why they called me,” Ranieri replied with a smile.

He then added a call for the Giallorossi fans to rise up and fight, a call typically made for the arrival of a ‘good guy’ in a cowboy movie to save the day.

“Ready! The cavalry is coming!”

This will be the 73-year-old’s third spell at Roma, having been born and raised as a fan of the club.

He was previously in charge of the team from September 2009 to February 2011, before returning as caretaker manager from March to June 2019.

Roma will have a fourth coach in 2024 after Jose Mourinho, Daniele De Rossi and Ivan Juric.( zbet911 )
