Roma are thinking about Bielsa!

Roma are in the middle of a battle for a Europa League spot. After being left with practically no chance of getting a Champions League spot, the club hope to end the season in the European places to bring in some fresh faces in the summer. 

One certain change for next season is the manager. The Italian Claudio Ranieri, who arrived after Di Francesco was sacked, has confirmed he will not continue as the manager. In recent days, various names have been linked with the post including Conte, Sarri, Gasperini and Giampaolo. 

However, today 'Sky Sport' has put forward another option for the Roma bench. It is Marcelo Bielsa. The Argentine, who is liked by the Roma board, is apparently a plan B if they cannot get Sarri or Gasperini. 

It is not certain whether 'El Loco' will stay on at Leeds United. The failure to get promotion to the Premier League could make the coach reconsider his future. In addition, the club would have difficulties in continuing to pay him his annual salary of three million euros. 

Bielsa could be the ace up Petrachi's sleeve. Petrachi will probably become the new sporting director to lead a clean out of the squad. In any case, we have to wait and see if Bielsa ends up at the Stadio Olimpico.
