Claudio Ranieri has won 3 of 15 Premier League games at Fulham and could reportedly be replaced by Victor Sanchez del Amo.
Claudio Ranieri told reporters on Friday that he has no intention of walking away from Fulham even if they are relegated to the Championship. Which, considering they are eight points from safety, looks a genuine possibility (Evening Standard).
But it seems that decision could be taken out of his hands.
According to AS, Fulham are genuinely considering one last roll of the dice as they look to pull off a historic escape from relegation.
It is understood that Ranieri is in danger of the sack after winning just three of his 15 games in charge. The veteran Italian is an experienced, proven manager but there have been no signs of a repeat of the miracle he produced at Leicester City.
Whatever Fulham fans think about Ranieri, however, it seems they are not too convinced by his potential replacement. AS claims that Victor Sanchez del Amo, a 42-year-old former Real Madrid midfielder, could be on his way to Craven Cottage.
But Sanchez’s coaching CV doesn’t make for great reading. He won just 10 of 50 games at Deportivo La Coruna, lasted two months at Olympiakos and hasn’t been in work anywhere since he was sacked after a dreadful spell at Real Betis in May 2017.
Maybe sticking with Ranieri is a better option.
