For the current Lecce coach this would be a return to the Giallorosso club.
Within the next 20 days, Roma are expected to choose the new coach to guide the ailing club from next season. Bruno Conti, who will take over the Technical Director seat left vacant by Baldini, is set to decide who the new trainer will be and the choice is between three coaches: Zdenak Zeman, Luciano Spalletti and Serse Cosmi.
The favourite is Zeman who coached Roma for two seasons in the late 90s and this would therefore be a return to the Capital city for the controversial coach. However both Spalletti and Cosmi are in line for the job should the Zeman deal fall through.
