Roma CEO Lina Souloukou Resigns Amid Fan Outrage Over De Rossi's Firing

The resignation follows a tumultuous week marked by protests and security concerns after the dismissal of the beloved coach.

Lina Souloukou stepped down as CEO and general manager of AS Roma following intense fan backlash.
The resignation comes after the surprise firing of coach Daniele De Rossi, who was replaced by Ivan Jurić.
Fans are planning protests during Roma's match against Udinese, with some boycotting the first half in solidarity with De Rossi.
Souloukou reportedly required a security detail due to threats and a banner at the club's training ground.
Owners Dan and Ryan Friedkin have not publicly explained the decision to fire De Rossi, who had a contract extension through 2026-27.
