Totti happy to pen ten-year Roma contract

Francesco Totti has agreed a new ten-year contract with Roma.

The deal runs to 2019 and includes the option for Totti to join the technical staff once he hangs up his boots.

"It's a lifestyle choice," said the midfielder. "I think this contract comes from what I have shown on the field. Out of respect I had towards the Sensi family, to my companions, the coach and fans, I signed it.

"The Ballon d'Or? If I had gone elsewhere I would have won it. But I'm so happy because I made a choice from my heart."

Totti afraid from challenges that's why he stayed at Roma. Nesta as well was the rising star of lazio but he had to leave to win things. For me Totti never showed a great Class he is in the same class of Arteta Good player but afraid to move on. FAILURE

Vivek!! great list
All the players listed are a mirror image of the persona of their clubs. Totti is a fabulous player and would no doubt have won more trophies if he had moved to a bigger club.

As for Nnamdi saying Giggs isnt a legend....someone missed breakfast this morning didnt they.

who said Giggs is a legend,talk of pple like Terry.
