Gigi Buffon is happy seeing Daniele de Rossi in charge at AS Roma.

Buffon says De Rossi was the right appointment for Roma after the dismissal of Jose Mourinho.

The Italy legend told Radio Romanista: “I talk to Daniele five or six times a year, I've already wished him good luck, I've already had the opportunity to say that there was no better man or professional to take the reins of Roma now and perhaps also for the future, especially after Mourinho's departure.

“I believe that there was only one choice to make, and it was made. Furthermore, also from what he is showing in these matches, they are playing well, and I think he has many arrows in his bow to play at his best."
