Roma icon Francesco Totti has declared Antonio Cassano his best teammate.

Totti spoke with Corriere dello Sport yesterday.

He was asked to name the best player he ever worked with.

“Technically Cassano. Cassano, because we conversed with each other on the field and could find each other at any moment. I had a great rapport off the pitch with him too, so we were in total sync.

“We are talking about not just one of the best players in Italy, but in Europe, because in terms of talent alone he is a phenomenon.

“Then there's Gabriel Batistuta, Vincenzo Montella, those players who made football history. They should be remembered because it was a pleasure to watch them and I was fortunate enough to play alongside them too."
