Juric under pressure: sacking looms if Roma lose to Torino

Beleaguered boss needs a result in Monday's Serie A clash

Juric's future in the balance after poor start to the season

Ivan Juric could be sacked as Roma manager if his team loses to Torino on Monday, according to a report in Corriere dello Sport.

The Giallorossi have endured a poor start to the 2024-25 campaign, winning just four of their first 12 Serie A matches. They are currently eighth in the table, 10 points behind leaders Napoli.

Juric has come under increasing pressure in recent weeks, with fans and media alike calling for his dismissal. A defeat to Torino would likely be the final straw for the Croatian coach.

Roma have a difficult run of fixtures coming up, with matches against Inter Milan, Juventus, and Lazio all on the horizon. Juric will need to turn things around quickly if he wants to keep his job.

Torino, meanwhile, are also in need of a win. They are currently 13th in the table, just three points above the relegation zone.

The match between Roma and Torino will be played at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome on Monday, October 31, 2024.
