DANIELE DE ROSSI'S FIRST WIN: GENOA RALLIES AFTER SLOW FIRST HALF
Daniele De Rossi secures his first managerial win at Genoa, a 2-1 comeback against Verona. The new boss praised his team's spirit but demanded a better first-half performance.
Daniele De Rossi celebrated his first win as Genoa's coach today, with a sweet 2-1 comeback against Verona.
This win bumps Genoa up to 15th place in Serie A for now, until the other games this weekend shake things up.
Even with the victory, De Rossi pointed out that the team needs to play better, especially in the first half. He said, “This win is important, even if it doesn’t change everything. We know our first half wasn't great, but the guys always respond well.”
Lorenzo Colombo and Morten Thorsby scored the goals that won the game, after Rafik Belghali put Verona ahead early on.
De Rossi seems happy with how dedicated his team has been. They haven't lost in the three games since he took over.
In his press conference (via TuttoSport), he mentioned, “The attitude in training and during matches is great, but we need to step it up in the first half.”
He also talked about how the team needs to turn ball possession into real scoring chances, something they’ve struggled with this season.
“We had the ball a lot, but we need to figure out how to do things with it. We were too slow and didn't look for open spaces. We’re enjoying this win and the good feeling. We played much better in the second half, even if we got pushed back in the final minutes.
De Rossi also had some advice for two of his key forwards, encouraging them to work together better to create more opportunities for the team.
“Vitinha and Colombo? They need to find each other more. They were a bit static in the first half, even though they helped us get out of a tough spot. These guys need to get assists and score goals to win over the fans.
“I care a lot about my job, the staff, the team, and the fans. A coach’s job is to get the team ready. If the first half wasn’t good, that’s on me. I also have to figure out what was going wrong. It wasn’t really about tactics but more about how we moved the ball. You have to give a little extra.”
Looking ahead to their match against Atalanta in Coppa Italia on Wednesday, De Rossi was asked if he'll make changes to the team.
He replied, “We were just focused on getting ready for today’s match. I’m thinking about it a lot. I’d like to switch out ten players to give everyone a chance, but changing that many players can hurt their ability to play well.
“There will be chances for guys who haven’t played much, but I don’t want to just throw them in there for the sake of it. Coppa Italia is important, and I respect it.”
TRANSFER TWIST: ANTONIO CONTE ENTERS THE RACE TO STEAL RADU DRAGUSIN FROM ROMA
Radu Dragusin is heading back to Italy! Read how Antonio Conte’s Napoli plans to hijack Roma’s €15m move for the Tottenham star.
Radu Dragusin’s future just got a lot more interesting. A journalist now says Napoli manager Antonio Conte wants to bring the Tottenham defender to Italy, even though Dragusin already has an agreement in place with AS Roma.
Dragusin is back to full fitness after tearing his ACL in January 2025, but his time at Tottenham looks like it’s almost up. Roma are pushing hard to sign him when the transfer window opens. They tried a loan deal with an option to buy, but Spurs turned that down. Still, Roma aren’t giving up.
Il Corriere dello Sport reported Tuesday morning that Dragusin is “pushing for Roma.” He’s apparently been talking with Roma for days and has already agreed on contract terms.
Tottenham are open to selling the 23-year-old this month, but they want €20 million. Roma don’t want to go higher than €15 million and would rather take him on loan first, with an option to buy. They’re just not ready to gamble big on a player who only recently came back from a major knee injury.
Then came a twist. On Tuesday afternoon, Italian journalist Mirko Di Natale posted on X that Napoli have asked about Dragusin. Conte, who managed Tottenham not that long ago and just won Serie A with Napoli, is now trying to strengthen his squad for another title run.
Di Natale said Roma are still leading the race, but talks with Tottenham have stalled. They can’t agree on the deal structure, especially the loan with an option to buy. Meanwhile, RB Leipzig is lurking in the background, offering Tottenham a straight purchase.
Tottenham only signed Dragusin from Genoa in January 2024 for £26.7 million. He’s under contract in north London until 2030.
Other Tottenham transfer headlines: Mathys Tel wants out in January, and Dean Jones has the inside scoop on why Conor Gallagher is picking Spurs over Aston Villa, with the midfielder set for a medical soon. And, just to stir the pot, a former Tottenham manager has weighed in on whether Thomas Frank should be sacked.
THE GIALLOROSSI CROSSROADS: WHY EVAN FERGUSON’S ROMA FUTURE IS SUDDENLY UNDER THREAT
Evan Ferguson faces fresh competition at Roma! With Robinio Vaz and Donyell Malen arriving, find out what's next for the Irish star.
Evan Ferguson has been playing well for Roma recently, but there are still questions about what will happen to him at the club soon.
The Irish player joined the Serie A team on loan for a season, with a €40 million option to make the move permanent this summer. At first, he had trouble in Italy because of injuries and not playing much. The manager even questioned him about it publicly a few times.
But Ferguson seemed to have turned things around lately. He has started the team's last four league games, even though he had to leave the game early in the win over Sassuolo last weekend because of what people think is a small back injury.
Now, Roma is bringing in more players, which makes his place on the team uncertain.
Evan Ferguson's Future is Unclear Because Roma is Making Two Big Moves
Roma has been connected to different forward players in recent weeks. The club are now close to adding to their options up front.
Fabrizio Romano says that the club has agreed to sign Marseille striker Robinio Vaz in a deal that could be worth up to €25 million.
That's not the only new player coming.
Many sources say that Roma has agreed to a deal to sign Donyell Malen from Aston Villa. The Dutch player is set to join on loan with an option to buy this summer.
Both of these players would give Gian Piero Gasperini more choices up front. But it looks like the club missed out on their main target for January, as Atletico Madrid's Giacomo Raspadori reportedly turned down Roma to move to Atalanta.
Evan Ferguson won't play in Tuesday's Coppa Italia game against Torino because of that small back injury. But he is expected to be back soon. When he does return, it seems like he will have a lot more competition to get a spot on the team.
