The 23-year-old left Roma back in 2022, joining Swiss side FC Basel where he really managed to come into his own.
A serious knee injury hampered his development in the Italian capital, but he clearly still has an affinity for the club he grew up supporting.
Speaking on the Supernova, Calafiori admitted he would like to return to Roma and reflected on his departure.
“I‘d like to return to Roma sooner or later. We can’t plan it, of course, but yes, I want to return,” he said.
“It all started very well, with a goal. I played a lot for the first six months with Mourinho , even providing a few assists.
“Then came Bodo Glimt-Roma , and from that moment on I didn’t play again. I went to Genoa on loan, but I didn’t play there either.
“Only three appearances. In the meantime, Roma won the Conference. There was no more room for me.”
