Roma are still running for a top-four finish in Serie A, sitting three points behind third-placed Juventus in the Serie A table.

On Saturday, they host Gasperini’s ex-club Atalanta at the Stadio Olimpico, with La Dea also looking for points in the race for a European spot.

Gasperini left his pre-match press conference in tears, while talking about his time at Atalanta, but before that, he had faced a question about his future at the Stadio Olimpico.

Question about Gasperini’s Roma future ‘creates problems’

“You keep asking me about other things, but I want to talk about the match,” he replied.

“I said I don’t want to create problems, and this question creates problems, so ask a question about the team or tomorrow’s game.”

Gasperini is under contract with Roma until June 2028, but growing tension with the club’s management, especially Claudio Ranieri, will likely force the club owners to choose between the Italian tactician and the Senior Advisor for 2026-27.
