Lina Souloukou has announced her resignation. Her decision to step down comes four days after the sacking of head coach Daniele de Rossi. De Rossi’s dismissal was met with anger by Roma supporters, with Souloukou receiving much of the backlash.

New AS Roma coach Ivan Juric said his players were disappointed by the sacking of Daniele De Rossi, but he was pleased with their performance as they clinched their first Serie A win of the season by beating Udinese 3-0 on Sunday.

Roma has fired coach Daniele De Rossi in a move that was surprising despite the Giallorossi going winless in their opening four Italian league matches.
