Claudio Ranieri Offers New Hope for Mats Hummels at AS Roma

The veteran defender may see more playtime under Roma's newly appointed coach after a challenging season start.

  • Hummels, 35, transferred from Borussia Dortmund to AS Roma but has struggled for game time, featuring in only one league match.
  • Claudio Ranieri, Roma's third coach this season, suggests Hummels may have a chance to join the starting lineup.
  • Ranieri expressed admiration for Hummels' past performances, particularly his decisive header in a Champions League semifinal against PSG.
  • Previous coaches, Daniele De Rossi and Ivan Juric, largely sidelined Hummels, who had a difficult outing with an own goal in his sole appearance.
  • Ranieri's appointment comes as Roma seeks stability after a tumultuous season with multiple coaching changes.
