Former Roma CEO Lina Souloukou finds new role in the Premier League
Lina Souloukou, who until recently worked with Serie A club Roma, stepped down from her position in late September. However, her unemployment was brief, as she is set to begin a new role with a Premier League club.
Details: Nottingham Forest has officially announced on their website the appointment of Souloukou as their CEO. She will oversee Forest’s strategic development, guiding the club's long-term vision for success in the Premier League and European competitions.
Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis expressed his enthusiasm about Souloukou’s arrival, highlighting her strong track record.
Quote: “We are delighted to welcome Lina Souloukou to our team. Her successful experience in football management, passion, and commitment perfectly align with our vision for the development of Nottingham Forest and the entire group, as we continue striving for greater success,” he said.
Reminder: Souloukou’s departure from Roma came amid speculation about a conflict with Daniele De Rossi. Their relationship was reportedly strained for some time, with disagreements over transfers and results.
Following this, the CEO faced criticism from fans and players alike, ultimately leading to her decision to step down.
