According to Di Marzio and Gazzetta, Juric has already terminated his contract with Roma.

Fabrizio Romano reports Juric already has an agreement in place with the Saints and will sign his contract today.

Juric was hired by Roma in mid-September to replace Daniele De Rossi. However, he managed the Giallorossi for just 12 games, collecting only four victories.

He had coached Torino for three seasons, from 2021 until 2024, winning 45 games from 122.

Under his guidance, Torino finished seven points below a European placement last term.
