ROME (Reuters) - AS Roma will continue their push for a place in the Champions League on Saturday amid the fallout from the sudden announcement of stalwart midfielder Daniele De Rossi's departure.

Roma take an unbeaten seven-match run to Sassuolo on Saturday but that the match has almost been forgotten following Tuesday's news that 35-year-old would be leaving the club at the end of the season after 18 years' unstinting service. [nL5N22Q272]

"As coach, I would have said that I still want him, because I know the sort of player, man and a captain he is," he said."In football, there are so many ways to be a leader, he is the ideal one for a coach."Rome's chief executive Guido Fienga admitted on Tuesday that the matter was not dealt with in the ideal way.

"The club acted in the worst possible way," said former Roma forward Marco Delvecchio, who played alongside De Rossi during the early part of his career."You don't treat club symbols that way."
