With his dismissal, Mats Hummels introduced the AS Rome in the Europa League. Now a decision has been made to the future of the defense lawyer in the Italian capital.
The time of Mats Hummels at AS Rome obviously is coming to an end. After its early dismissal in the Europa League second leg against Athletic Bilbao and the associated 1: 3 defeat, the club does not seem to have decided not to extend the 36-year-old’s expiring contract. The Italian newspaper “Corriere Dello Sport” reports.
“This is the end of a love that is never really blossomed,” writes the sheet, “The club and Hummels will go separate paths without regrets.” Hummels had apologized to the team after his dismissal, which was already in the eleventh minute, both among the fans on social media and during training in front of the team.
The “Gazzetta Dello Sport” also wrote of a fixed farewell and reported that many fans recently accused of a “lifestyle as on vacation”. According to “Tuttosport”, the world champion from 2014 will probably spend the remaining ten game days of Serie A on the bench.
A few weeks ago, coach Claudio Ranieri Hummels called “indispensable” and even praised him as a “monument” for his team. Now this assessment no longer seems to play a role.
