“Under his stewardship this season, the team has won more Serie A points and scored more goals than any side in Roma’s history. We wish Luciano all the best for the future.
“This club is on a constant path of growth and that will continue with the appointment of a new coach who shares our values and philosophy and who will continue to help us take AS Roma forward,” he added.
His last game in charge was a dramatic 3-2 win over Genoa which also saw the club bid farewell to legendary striker Francesco Totti after his 786th appearance for the club.
The win secured Roma's place in the group stages of next season's Champions League.
