AS Roma and Athletic Bilbao with 1-1 draw at Olimpico

The Romans are going through a torrid time with only 2 wins out of their first 7 matches this season, as they sit a disappointing 13th in the table.

The club travels to the Sardegna Arena to face Cagliari, led by Claudio Ranieri, the former Leicester City and Chelsea boss, and the match could prove decisive for the Portuguese’s future.

According to the reports, the club has prepared a Mourinho’s replacement should the 60-year-old fail to lead them to victory.

Rumors suggest the name in question is former Germany and Bayern Munich coach Hansi Flick, who infamously received the sack last month after heavy 4-1 defeat to Japan.

If a decision to axe Mourinho is made then there certainly be a huge outlash among fans as ‘The Special One’ has become a local favorite after leading them to a back-to-back Europe finals those past 2 years.
