After a ambiguous Instagram post, Mats Hummels made it clear that he did not want to criticize his coach Claudio Ranieri in any way.

“Every time I post a private picture from Rome, people write ‘vacation in Rome’ – and that’s exactly what the joke is under my last post. Crazy that someone says it is criticism of Mr. Ranieri, whom I respect and appreciate so much. Wow, “the defender wrote in English in his Instagram story on Wednesday.

“Oscar for the longest vacation”

The 36-year-old had been in a good mood on Monday as a tourist in front of a Roman bridge and in a restaurant. He wrote: “Get the Oscar for the longest vacation …”

It was an allusion to Roma owner Dan Friedkin, who won five Oscars as producer of the film Anora – but can also be read as a sarcastic comment on his own situation.

Post apparently triggers displeasure with the Roma

With his post, Hummels had apparently caused resentment at the traditional Italian club as Rome.

As the Corriere Dello Sport reports, club management and coach Claudio Ranieri Hummels have blamed that on Monday he had suffered subtle criticism of his low operating times in the past few weeks.

The club supervisors have apparently not remained hidden, the relationships between the club and players are now tense, reports the corriere . An extension beyond the contract run until June 30th should be excluded. “The farewell is getting closer,” commented the paper.

Hummels rarely used recently in use

Hummel’s’ contract in Rome expires on June 30, 2025, according to Sport1 information he only wants to decide on his future in the summer.

Hummels had actually established itself in the Roma defense center after a difficult initial phase, which is why it was recently speculated by expanding the collaboration. Now staying in Italy’s capital appears unlikely.

Since February, the former BVB professional has only played two out of seven competitive games and most recently stood in series A against the bottom of AC Monza (4-0) in the starting eleven. So far, Hummels has played 15 competitive games for the Roma, only six over 90 minutes.
