Roma will lose assistant coach Salvatore Foti for their upcoming Serie A fixtures.

The Italian assistant earned a red card in the final minutes of Roma’s recent encounter with Udinese on Sunday night.

Upon further review of the footage, the Lega Sporting Judge confirmed the red card and declared the following punishment for Foti who was seen insulting the fourth official on the touchline.

In the Sporting Judge’s statement, Foti is said to have been suspended for the next two matchdays which means Mourinho’s assistant will be forced to miss the games with Sassuolo and Fiorentina.
