Gasperini has built a reputation as one of Italy's top coaches during his time at Atalanta. Under his leadership, the team consistently qualified for the Champions League. His experience and skills will likely be valuable assets to Roma as they move forward.

Roma had considered other candidates, including Erik ten Hag and Cesc Fabregas, but ultimately chose Gasperini for the position. The exact terms of his deal, including the length of his contract, have not been disclosed.
