ROME (AP) — Roma fired Ivan Juric to mark its second coaching change this season, with the move coming after a 3-2 home loss to Bologna on Sunday in Serie A.

Juric replaced the popular Daniele De Rossi in September but hasn’t turned Roma’s fortunes around.

The Giallorossi are in 12th place and only four points above the relegation zone.

“We would like to thank Ivan Juric for his hard work these past weeks,” Roma said in a statement. “He handled a difficult environment with the utmost professionalism, and for that we are grateful. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors.

“The search for a new head coach has already begun and we expect an announcement in the coming days,” Roma added.

Claudio Ranieri and Roberto Mancini have been linked as possible new coaches for Roma, which could also rehire De Rossi, who is still under contract with the club.

De Rossi was hired in January to replace Jose Mourinho.
