Claudio Ranieri is ready to take over as Roma’s new head coach.

The veteran technician makes his return to the Italian capital club following his last stint in 2019.

As reported by Filippo Biafora of Il Tempo, Ranieri just landed in Rome with a flight to Fiumicino from London where he met with Roma president Dan Friedkin to finalize the agreement.

At the airport, the manager was welcomed by a crowd of supporters who’d gathered to thank him for returning in such a difficult situation.

Tomorrow his appointment will be made official and Ranieri will be allowed to conduct his first training session in preparation for the match against Napoli on November 24.
