Peace made between Dzeko e Fonseca. In the morning, the coach and the forward of the Roma they had a face to face, where they cleared up after the disagreements born in Italian Cup, in the game lost against Spice. The Bosnian, however, does not come out unscathed, thus losing the captain’s armband, which he will pass to Pilgrims. However, good news for the Giallorossi fans, who were anxiously awaiting a truce for the good of Roma in the first place.
The general manager spoke at the press conference Tiago Pinto he wanted to clarify the matter: “I certainly do not want to escape the question. Much has been said and written on the issue, but clubs live with family dynamics and they solve problems. And it comes out stronger. Edin is a great professional and player with great charisma, Fonseca is a leader of our sports project. In the last few days we have had meetings aimed at reinforcing this feeling of mutual trust: they are meetings from which we have come out happy and confident to come out with success. We must focus on the collective good of Rome, which is far more important than the interests of individuals ”.
The Bosnian will pay for his mistakes: “The band? I am convinced that a club must stand on discipline and rules: Dzeko is not the team captain. For the future we will work in the interest of Roma and Edin will be the first to work on this ”.
Will the club ask Fonseca to let Dzeko play? Who decided on the captain’s armband removed from the Bosnian? To these two questions, Pinto puts the record straight: “They are two different issues. The first concerns the strategy of the club’s future, the assignment of the band involves the coach and the club: it will always be a shared decision. The coach has maximum autonomy on technical choices, he chooses players and substitutions: there is no influence from the club ”.
Another fundamental theme of the last few days has been the alleged farewell of Fonseca: “First of all, I want to clarify that all the news circulated regarding meetings with other coaches are not true, they are lies. None of this has ever happened. Both the presidency and I are very satisfied with Fonseca, with whom we work for the present and the future of Roma. My relationship with Paulo is very good: the coach is not distracted by these rumors, he only thinks about the match on Saturday and the next matches ”.
