There is a clause in the contract of the coach of Roma Paulo Fonseca, upon fulfillment of which the agreement will automatically be extended for a year.

Paulo Fonseca's contract, expiring in summer 2021, will be automatically renewed if Roma finishes in the top four - Sky Italia reports.

It is precisely getting into the Champions League that is a prerequisite for turning the two-year contract of the ex-Shakhtar coach into a three-year one.

In addition to the question with the coach, the Italian publication considers the main tasks of the new sporting director of Roma Thiago Pinto to solve the problem of goalkeepers and keep Lorenzo Pellegrini in the team..

As for the number one post, almost everything is clear with the reserve goalkeeper - 37-year-old Antonio Mirante will be offered a contract for another year, but the main bosses of Roma want to see someone much younger and more promising.

With Pellegrini, whose contract ends in summer 2022, negotiations on a new long-term agreement will begin in January..
