Francesco Totti wants guarantees over his role at Roma post-retirement before committing to a new deal.
Il Messaggero says Totti has agreed terms and also settled on image rights with Roma over next season's contract.
However, negotiations have stalled over Totti's plans in retirement.
The club captain wants the opportunity to work as a technical director, however Roma's response to his demands have been lukewarm.
Roma have told Totti he should wait until the end of next season before considering any type of front office post.
