Conte and Sarri main contenders for Roma job

Maurizio Sarri and Antonio Conte are the two main frontrunners to land the Roma job this summer.

According to Corriere Dello Sport, they are Roma’s top two candidates to be their next manager.

Claudio Ranieri is currently in caretaker charge until the end of the season, as they look to secure a Champions League place in the next month.

Roma are currently one point off the top four, with six games left to play, and Champions League football could be a factor in whether or not they are able to persuade Sarri to join.

The report does, however, claim that Roma would only move for Sarri if Chelsea decide to sack him at the end of the season.

Sarri has come under fire for Chelsea’s style of play and their performances this season, with the club currently struggling to make it into the top four.

Former Chelsea boss Conte, meanwhile, is out of a job and has already held talks with Roma over a deal.
