Ivan Juric has been named the new manager of Roma after the shocking dismissal of Daniele De Rossi. It has been reported that the club legend was at odds with the Roma CEO, which led to his premature sacking.
The club wasted little time in finding his replacement, and quickly settled on the former Torino manager. The Croatian has already had his first training session with the team, and has laid out a new rule which reportedly requires the players and staff to share dinner before heading home.

“We have to learn to get to know each other quickly, Udinese is on Sunday and we have to bring home the victory. The best response at this moment is to give our all on the pitch,” he told the players.
The club is currently winless, with only three points from a possible 12 in Serie A. De Rossi was backed heavily in the transfer market, and with a significant amount of movement in the squad this summer, it was always going to take a bit of time to adapt.
However, the club legend was not given that luxury, and Juric has till the end of the season to set things right. Only time will tell if he is able to get the team back on winning terms.
Which other clubs has Ivan Juric managed?
Crotone, Genoa, Mantova, Hellas Verona
