Roma chief Mauro Baldissoni says Francesco Totti will be with them next season.

Totti, intimates Baldissoni, has accepted their new contract offer.

“Francesco Totti is an idol here in the United Arab Emirates," Baldissoni said on Roma TV, as the Lupi contest a friendly against Al Ahly.

“Even more so than [Mohamed] Salah. It's nice that they are the two who are most acclaimed by the fans, it seems like a nice handover between the past and the future of the club.

“Although I must say, Totti will continue to play for Roma and will be part of the Giallorossi family for a long time to come."
