Ranieri ponders resignation following Gasp fallout

Ranieri ponders resignation following Gasp fallout

At Trigoria, tensions continue between Ranieri and Gasperini, with the Friedkins in the middle, trying to mend a rift that’s growing worse with each passing day.

As La Gazzetta dello Sport reports, yet another argument erupted on Tuesday, in the presence of sporting director Ricky Massara, who was also heatedly involved in the discussion.

An almost extreme situation, which some believed would have led Ranieri to even consider resigning.

However, on the other hand, it has pushed the coach to have yet another meeting with the owners, to understand the Texans’ future plans.

In various discussions with the Friedkins in recent days, the owners have confirmed their trust in him, reassuring him about his future.

However, the facts tell us that six days have already passed since Ranieri’s statements to Pisa, and no position or decision has been taken.

In a video call, the Friedkins reiterated to the Giallorossi coach how Ranieri is a key figure in their project, and the puzzle seems impossible to put together. Because among the many things Gasperini emphasized to Dan, there’s the lack of communication between him and the other two directors.

After all, there are many points of contention, not just the transfer market, but also the internal management of many other matters. And so Gasp has many other thoughts.

Because if it’s true that trust has been expressed in words, he would also like to cash in on it with actions. Furthermore, the very lack of a clear position supports the idea that Ranieri’s words also reflect Dan’s thoughts. In short, Gasp wants answers quickly.

And this too has emerged in various discussions with the president, with the coach noting that the seasons are starting to be built right now. It will therefore be necessary to understand what the next steps will be for each of the parties involved.

At Ciampino, for example, yesterday there was a slot reserved by the Friedkins, a reservation that is also valid for today.

The ownership could emerge in Rome at any moment, even if it has already happened on other occasions that Dan and Ryan have blocked slots without using them. Gasp is certainly keen to finish the season on a high note. Then if he gets answers from the Friedkins, we can move forward, otherwise everyone will go their own way.
