The Friedkin Group, owners of "Roma", have officially announced the gradual return of the club's historic logo, with complete implementation set for 2027 to coincide with the Italian club's centenary celebrations.
"This return to our roots represents our commitment to honoring the rich history of 'Roma' while building toward a successful future," a statement from the ownership reads.
The ambitious announcement didn't stop with visual identity changes. The owners also revealed plans to construct a new stadium for the capital club, though specific details about location and timeline remain under wraps.
This news comes after "Roma" secured a fifth-place finish in the 2024/25 Serie A campaign, collecting 69 points from their 38 matches. Not bad for a transitional season!
Interestingly, the announcement follows recent reports about Gian Piero Gasperini's transfer plans as the new head coach. The former Atalanta tactician reportedly has several targets lined up to strengthen the squad ahead of next season.
The message was shared through the club's official communication channels as an end-of-season address to supporters. Will these changes help "Roma" challenge for higher positions in coming seasons? The foundations certainly seem to be falling into place.
