Roma star Totti: I would've won Ballon d'Or if I'd moved to Real Madrid

AS Roma captain Francesco Totti feels he would've won a Ballon d'Or if he'd signed for Real Madrid.

Totti admits he's turned down Real during his career.

"I would've liked more opportunities in my career, but I preferred to stay with Roma," he told France Football.

"I lost so many things that I could've won. I knew what I was going into, though, for example the fact I have not won the Champions League.

"If I had chosen Real Madrid, I'd have won three Champions Leagues and two Ballon d'Ors on top of who knows what else.

"I would've had more opportunities, that is beyond doubt, but I am happy with my choices. The only regret is that we could've won two or three more Scudetti with Roma."
