Veretout to remain team’s main penalty-taker

Andy Mattioli

Trust. That is the feeling that binds Jose Mourinho to Jordan Veretout after Roma’s disappointing loss to Juventus on Sunday night.

According to Corriere dello Sport, despite rumors saying otherwise, Veretout will continue being the number one choice for the team’s penalty kicks.

The one vs Juventus was his first miss in thirteen consecutive scored penalties. The Frenchman is looking to redeem himself in the upcoming big match against Spalletti’s unbeaten Napoli.

Veretout is reportedly very happy at Roma and the crucial miss at the Allianz Stadium will not change the hierarchy in Roma’s penalty-taking: Veretout, then Pellegrini and Abraham. That is Mourinho’s list.
