Di Benedetto has plans to transform Roma into global force

Thomas Di Benedetto has big plans for AS Roma as he completes his takeover today. The American businessman will be in Rome this morning to oversee the buyout.

"I dream of a team that can win trophies every year," said Di Benedetto. "We will become one of the best clubs in the world."

On the stadium, he added: "The Olimpico is a bonus and not the passion of the Romans, the stands are too far away from the field, noise with distance is lost.

"We need a system similar to the English, a modern version of Campo Testaccio."
