According to Il Corriere dello Sport, Roma have chosen OGC Nice’s Florent Ghisolfi as their new sporting director.
The Giallorossi parted ways with Tiago Pinto in February 2024 and according to Il Corriere dello Sport, they are on the verge of hiring Florent Ghisolfi to replace the Portuguese.
According to the report, multiple sources confirm that the 39-year-old has been chosen for the job. Over the last few months, other candidates have been linked with the role, including Monza’s François-Joseph Modesto, Nicolas Burdisso, and Frederic Massara.
Il Corriere dello Sport claims Roma owners have been evaluating different candidates since February with the support of Retexo Intelligence, a company that helps football clubs study and identify the personnel that match their requirements.
Ghisolfi reportedly ticks all the boxes for Roma, especially the club’s desire to remain competitive and financially sustainable.
French media confirmed that Roma representatives met Ghisolfi twice over the last few weeks, and the French director’s plan for the team’s development satisfied the Giallorossi owners and directors.
