The 2019–20 season was Associazione Sportiva Roma's 92nd in existence and 91st season in the top flight of Italian football. Having finished sixth the previous season, the club competed in Serie A, the Coppa Italia, and the UEFA Europa League.

Shakhtar Donetsk coach Paulo Fonseca was hired by the club on 11 June to replace interim manager Claudio Ranieri, hired following the sacking of Eusebio Di Francesco the previous season, on a permanent basis.[1]

The season was the first since 2000-01 without Daniele de Rossi part of the first-team squad, who joined Boca Juniors, after spending 18 seasons with the club.
