After nearly two years since Lina Souloukou's turbulent departure, AS Roma finally has a new CEO. John Galantic, a former board member during the Pallotta era, returns to Trigoria to lead the club into a new phase. The team finished the 2025 season in third place in Serie A with 73 points, 23 wins, 4 draws, and 11 losses, showing a recent form of five consecutive victories.
Who is John Galantic?
Galantic, 65, is a manager of Italian descent with an international career. He has worked for companies like Procter & Gamble, GlaxoSmithKline, and Chanel, as well as holding executive roles at Ferrari and Bacardi. His passion for AS Roma comes from his father, who lived in Rome between 1939 and 1951.
What changes for AS Roma?
Galantic's return marks a fresh start for the club, which will aim to consolidate its position in Serie A and compete in the Champions League. The next official fixture will be against Parma, at home, on February 14, 2027.
The new partnership with Dsquared2
In addition to the new CEO announcement, AS Roma has signed a partnership with Dsquared2, which will become the club's official fashion partner. The designer brand will handle formal and casual outfits for the men's and women's first teams, as well as for the technical staff.
