On the heels of a convincing start to the season, Roma’s Gianluca Mancini speaks enthusiastically and pragmatically about the league race, his contract renewal, and future challenges.

Mancini: “We’re top thanks to our hard work, but the season has just begun”

Gianluca Mancini, Roma defender, commented on the Giallorossi’s excellent start to the season on the sidelines of the Beppe Viola Award at Coni. “If we’re top today, it’s on merit; we’ve fought hard for every match, but it’s only the beginning,” the player stated, emphasizing how the team remains focused on their journey and not on early standings.

Looking ahead to the next fixture, Mancini clarified: “Before Roma-Napoli, there’s an important game in Europe and it’s too soon to talk about a ‘title clash’—it’s still only November.” The defender then spoke about his contract: “I have a contract until 2027, we’ll discuss it with the club at the right time,” making it clear that it’s not a priority at the moment.

Finally, a comment on the national team and the Serie A matchday that cannot be postponed before the playoff: “We adapt to what we’re told. We have to focus on when we join the national team and work our best for two super important matches.” Mancini thus confirms his focus on the team and upcoming commitments, showing a balance between ambition and pragmatism.
