Claudio Ranieri Declines Italy National Team Offer, Prefers to Stay at Roma as Advisor
Claudio Ranieri Stays Loyal to Roma
In a move that might surprise some but makes perfect sense to those who know him, Claudio Ranieri has reportedly declined an offer to take over as manager of the Italian national team. The 72-year-old tactician, currently serving as an advisor at AS Roma, was approached after Luciano Spalletti’s dismissal.
The Weight of Commitment
Ranieri, known affectionately as ‘The Tinkerman’ during his Premier League days, has always been a man of his word. His reluctance to leave Roma stems from a deep sense of loyalty to the club where he previously managed during the 2009-10 season. As someone who’s analyzed football decisions for years, I can appreciate when a man prioritizes integrity over ambition.
Italy’s Managerial Conundrum
With Spalletti out, FIGC president Gabriele Gravina had identified Ranieri as his preferred candidate, alongside Stefano Pioli. While Pioli remains an option, losing Ranieri is a blow to their plans. The former Leicester City manager’s experience in international football (he coached Greece briefly in 2014) and his ability to unite squads made him an attractive choice.
Why This Makes Sense for Roma
From a tactical perspective, keeping Ranieri benefits Roma immensely. His wisdom helps balance the often volatile nature of Serie A management. For a club trying to build sustainable success under Daniele De Rossi’s leadership, having Ranieri’s steady hand in the background could prove invaluable.

Der Tinkerman bleibt sich treu!
Claudio Ranieri hat mal wieder bewiesen, dass Loyalität über alles geht. Während andere Trainer nach Ruhm und Ehre gieren, bleibt der 72-Jährige lieber bei Roma – und das als Berater! Vielleicht weiß er einfach, dass man im Alter nicht mehr so viel herumtüddeln sollte.
Italiens Verlust, Romas Gewinn
Die Nazionale sucht verzweifelt einen Trainer, aber Ranieri hat wohl keine Lust auf den Stress. Wer kann es ihm verübeln? Nach der Griechenland-Pleite 2014 ist Internationaler Fußball vielleicht nicht mehr sein Ding.
Fazit: Manchmal ist ein ruhiger Bürostuhl eben doch verlockender als der Nationaltrikot-Wahnsinn. Was meint ihr? Hätte er zusagen sollen? Kommentare willkommen!
El Tinkerman no cambia de opinión
Claudio Ranieri, el famoso ‘Tinkerman’, ha decidido quedarse en Roma como asesor en lugar de dirigir a la selección italiana. ¡Y eso que le ofrecían el trabajo nacional! Pero claro, cuando eres leal como él, ni la tentación de entrenar a Italia te hace cambiar de idea.
Sabiduría romana
Ranieri sabe lo que hace: en Roma tiene espresso, pasta y menos dolores de cabeza. ¿Para qué complicarse con la FIGC cuando puedes disfrutar de la vida en la capital?
¿Vosotros qué pensáis? ¿Hizo bien o se perdió una gran oportunidad? ¡Dejad vuestros comentarios! (Y tranquilos, seguro que no cambia de opinión… otra vez 😉)
O TinkerMan não troca a Roma!
Claudio Ranieri provou mais uma vez que é o rei da lealdade! Recusou a seleção italiana para ficar na Roma como consultor. Será que ele sabe algo que nós não sabemos? 🤔
Consultor ou Mestre Jedi?
Com a sabedoria de Yoda e a experiência de um verdadeiro mestre tático, Ranieri prefere orientar De Rossi nos bastidores. Afinal, quem precisa do caos da seleção quando se tem o calor de Roma?
E vocês? Acham que foi a decisão certa? Digam nos comentários - será que o FIGC vai ter que ir pescar outro treinador? 🎣
رانیری کا فیصلہ: بادشاہ یا مشیر؟
72 سالہ ‘ٹنکر مین’ نے اٹلی کی قومی ٹیم کو انکار کر دیا! کیا وجہ ہے؟ بس اتنا کہ رومہ کے ساتھ وفاداری ان کے خون میں ہے۔
وفاداری کی قیمت رانیری صاحب نے ثابت کیا ہے کہ آج کے دور میں بھی وفاداری زندہ ہے۔ ہاں، قومی ٹیم کی کوچنگ ایک اعزاز ہے، لیکن رومہ سے محبت کچھ اور ہی بات ہے!
رومہ کو فائدہ ڈینیئل ڈی روسی کو ایسے تجربہ کار مشیر کی ضرورت تھی جو انھیں سنبھال سکے۔ اور اب رانیری یہ کام کر رہے ہیں - جیسے گرو اور چیلا والا معاملہ!
کیا آپ کو لگتا ہے رانیری کو قومی ٹیم کی پیشکش قبول کر لینی چاہیے تھی؟ نیچے تبصرے میں اپنی رائے ضرور دیں!
Ranieri - ‘Ông thầy’ trung thành
Claudio Ranieri lại một lần nữa chứng minh ông là bậc thầy của sự trung thành! Từ chối dẫn dắt ĐTQG Ý để ở lại làm cố vấn cho AS Roma, quyết định này khiến fan bóng đá vừa bất ngờ vừa cảm phục.
Lựa chọn khó hiểu?
72 tuổi rồi mà vẫn từ chối cơ hội vàng để ‘nghỉ ngơi’ cùng ĐTQG, thay vào đó chọn tiếp tục vật lộn với Serie A. Phải chăng ông đang ám chỉ điều gì về tình hình bóng đá Ý? 😏
