Francesco Totti to leave Roma?
If the latest reports coming out of Italy are to be believed, Francesco Totti’s relationship with his club is at an all time low.
For starters, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Francesco-Totti-c13940 is considered the best player in the club’s history. Nicknamed ‘Er Pupone’ by the Giallorossi faithful, Totti is one of the very few one-club men remaining in world football. Ever since the Lupi legend made his debut for Giallorossi
in 1992, he has been a mainstay in the Giallorossi attack.
Tipped by many as the best Italian player of his generation, Totti’s form, along with his fitness has gone down in recent years. Worse still, the arrival of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jeremy-Menez-c18345 coming of age, first team opportunities have been
hard to come by.
Totti, who has a history of throwing tantrums, has not taken the change too well. Earlier in the season, the skipper was blasted by media and fans alike, after Totti reacted negatively upon beings substituted during a crunch game against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567. His frequent
contract rows with the club are no secret either.
On Sunday against Sampdoria, Totti was given only four minutes to impress despite Giallorossi trailing 2–1. The latest snub is likely to be the last straw. Totti is currently in Monaco with his family, taking time off from football and making up his mind
regarding his future at the club. The legendary no. 10 even cancelled a show on Italian TV. Upon his return, the Roma fan-favourite is likely to demand make-or-break talks with the club hierarchy. Even though the player has a multimillion dollar contract –
Totti is the highest paid player in Giallorossi roster – that runs into 2014, first team football assurance is what he needs.
With the player past his prime, it’s unlikely that the former Italy international will be assured of a starting place. Under such conditions, Totti might be forced to leave the club. The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 legend has frequently stated that he will never play for any other
Italian team – owing much to his love for Roma. A move to the Spanish La Liga or Major League Soccer is on the cards. Francesco Totti frequently visits Miami to spend his holidays, and a switch to the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/United-States-c3034 cannot be entirely discounted.
