Roma’s Sports Director Franco Baldini has resigned his post today. This is bad news for the club who are having an awful season already.

Baldini met with the Sensi and handed them his resignation which was reluctantly accepted after 5 years at the club.

 

He had handed them his resignation back in November 2004 but it was rejected as the club were desperate to hold onto him.

 

A club spokesman said:

 

“A.S. Roma S.p.A. announces that it has received the resignation from Mister Franco Baldini as Market Consultant of the club.

 

“A.S. Roma would like to thank Mister Baldini for the work done for the club and all the contributions given.”

 

“While taking act of the resignation, A.S. Roma specifies that this resignation, which has arrived three months before the expiry of the relative contract, do not effect the implementation of the company project, which will continue in the optic of valuation of its own park of players, and with the objective of holding a high technical level of the squad to be competitive both in Italy and Europe.”
