Claudio Ranieri resigns as coach of Serie A side Roma

Claudio Ranieri
Ranieri managed Chelsea between 2000 and 2004
Former Chelsea boss Claudio Ranieri has resigned as coach of Serie A side Roma after they crashed to a fourth-successive defeat.
Roma imploded at Genoa on Sunday, going down 4-3, having at one stage led 3-0.
The defeat leaves Roma nine points behind city rivals Lazio in fourth spot, which provides the chance to qualify for the Champions League.
Ranieri, who managed Chelsea from 2000 to 2004, took charge of Roma in September 2009.
The 59-year-old Italian has also coached a number of other Serie A teams, including Juventus, as well as Spanish clubs Valencia and Atletico Madrid.
In midweek, Roma's Champions League campaign suffered a severe setback after the 3-2 home defeat by Shakhtar Donetsk in the Stadio Olimpico.
This week, American consortium DiBenedetto was also given a 30-day period for exclusive talks to buy the cash-strapped club.
