Spalletti: Roma would be right to fire me

The Giallorossi beat Palermo 3-0 at the weekend to move up to second position in the Serie A standings, but lost three consecutive games in all competitions before the win.

Spalletti's current contract at the club expires at the end of the season and he recently declared that he would leave if he is unable to win a trophy.

"If I lose another two games, I won't even end the season [at Roma] because they will kick me out," he told Mediaset Premium after the 3-0 victory.

"We lost four out of five games before Palermo and people keep talking about the contract?

"Things change quickly in football and, quite rightly, Roma are a strong club who need results, so they would be right to fire me.

"I think I did the club a favour by not signing a new contract and they are happy about it too!

"Last year, they fired a coach [Rudi Garcia] and had to keep paying three years of his contract. I'm doing them a favour."
