Morgan De Sanctis returns to Rome, but not as a player.

As reported by Sky Sport, the goalkeeper has decided to retire as a player, despite having a contract renewal offer from Monaco, and to accept the proposal of Roma to become the new team manager. De Sanctis will be the leader and focal point between the players and the directors of Roma. De Sanctis arrived moments ago at Trigoria to begin his new adventure.
