Juric on brink of Roma sacking as defeat at Torino looms
Juric set to be axed as Roma boss if they lose derby
Jose Mourinho’s Roma are reportedly set to sack manager Ivan Juric if they lose the Rome derby to city rivals Torino on Tuesday.
Roma’s poor form could see Juric sacked
Roma have endured a poor start to the season, winning just three of their opening 12 Serie A games.
They currently sit eighth in the table, 13 points behind leaders Napoli.
Juric under pressure after just five months in charge
Juric was appointed Roma manager in May 2024, replacing Paulo Fonseca.
He has won just eight of his 22 games in charge, and his position is now under serious threat.
Torino a tough opponent for struggling Roma
Torino are a tough opponent for Roma, having won three of their last four meetings.
The Granata are also unbeaten in their last five home games against Roma.
Mourinho ready to make a change
Mourinho is reportedly ready to make a change if Roma lose to Torino.
The Portuguese coach has been linked with a move to Manchester United, and he could be tempted to leave Roma if they fail to improve their form.
Who could replace Juric at Roma?
A number of managers have been linked with the Roma job if Juric is sacked.
These include former Chelsea boss Antonio Conte, ex-Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri, and current Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers.
