Ranieri: Gasperini is carrying an important task, and it is a loss for me to refuse to coach the national team.

Recently, Ranieli talked about Roma's new coach Gasperini and his rejection of the Italian national team coach in an interview with TG3 during the anti-racist World Cup event in Riazé.

Is it your idea to choose Gasperini?

"I am a consultant to the Friedkin family and I hope to do my job well. Gasperini is carrying important tasks and everything will get better slowly."

Last season is very important to Rome. Did you expect it before taking over?

"No, I didn't expect it. I took over the team at a special moment. But thanks to everyone's help and support, we successfully got everything back on track. This is a big deal for the club, especially the fans, and the players."

Regarding the reasons you rejected the Italian national team before

"I think rejecting the national team is a loss for everyone, but I can't do two jobs at the same time. Since I have a contract with Rome, I can't take it. Invited by the Italian Football Association. The national team needs someone who can choose freely and recruit players. "

" If it were me, every call will bring too many problems. For example, if a player plays for 90 minutes and then plays against Roma. In short, the relationship between the two is too complicated. The national team needs a completely free person. Gattuso is a good choice. He knows the national team very well and has fought for it and suffered for it. I wish him all the best! "
