Roma sack coach De Rossi after winless season start

"The club's decision is made in the best interests of the team, to get back on the desired path as soon as possible at a time when the season is still in its early stages," Roma said. 

"A heartfelt thank you to Daniele, who will always be at home at the Giallorossi club, for the work done in recent months with passion and dedication."

Roma added that "communication regarding the team's technical guidance will follow."

Roma, who conceded a late equaliser to draw 1-1 at Genoa in the weekend, have three points after four matches.

They host Serie A leaders Udinese on Sunday.
