Sky Sport Italia reports that Ivan Juric will remain in charge of Roma for their upcoming Europa League game against Union Saint-Gilloise.

It’s not entirely surprising, even if Juric has only won four games from 10 at the Stadio Olimpico and lost three of the last four matches.

The Croatian tactician took charge of a Roma training session on Monday morning, one day after a 3-2 loss against Hellas Verona.

Mangiante said live on TV on Tuesday that the decision to keep relying on Juric was officially confirmed by the club owners, the Friedkin family, who are currently not in the capital.

Roma’s next competitive match is on Thursday at Union Saint-Gilloise.

The Giallorossi need a win to climb the Europa League table, while Juric remains under scrutiny will be looking for the three points to cement his position on the Capitolines’ bench.
