Genoa sign De Rossi: first training tomorrow, contract details | OneFootball

Daniele De Rossi is now one step away from the Genoa bench. After days of intense negotiations, the parties are fine-tuning the last economic details related to the contract and the composition of the technical staff.

Genoa, it's done with De Rossi: tomorrow the first training session. All the details on the contract

The decisive meeting was held in Milan on Tuesday evening and, barring any surprises, the coach will sign within a few hours.

According to sources close to the club, the first training session under his guidance is scheduled for Thursday, November 6, at the Signorini sports center in Pegli. The official debut will follow shortly after, in the crucial survival match against Fiorentina, scheduled for Sunday at 3 PM at the Luigi Ferraris stadium.

A special return: on December 29, De Rossi will reunite with Roma

The calendar immediately offers a highly emotional twist: on Monday, December 29 at 8:45 PM, De Rossi will return as an opponent at the Olimpico to face Roma, the team that shaped and launched him. It will be a confrontation full of significance, pitting his new coaching adventure against his unbreakable bond with the Giallorossi colors.

Contract details and renewal conditions

The contract is set to last until June 2026, with an automatic two-year renewal if Genoa remains in Serie A. This formula reflects the mutual trust between the Rossoblù club and the former Roma coach, who is convinced that the team has the means to achieve the survival goal.

Internal club sources reveal that De Rossi has already worked with his staff to define methods and intervention priorities. The technical project will focus on intensity, high pressing, and building from the back, principles that had already characterized his previous coaching experience.

Internal dynamics and the club's change of direction

Until a few hours ago, part of the management and the locker room had been pushing for the temporary confirmation of the Criscito-Murgita tandem, which had led the team in recent matches. However, a nighttime reflection by the president and the sporting director led to the decision to shift to a stronger and more charismatic profile, capable of giving an immediate turnaround to the technical project.

De Rossi suspended: debut from the stands

The new coach will not be able to sit on the bench in his first official match, as he has to serve a one-match suspension received in the last game played with Roma. Ironically, this will be at Marassi, the same stadium where he will make his debut as the new Genoa coach.
