Roma defender Juan Jesus has spoken of the final days at the club of Francesco Totti.

Totti is weighing up his playing future as he comes off contract at Roma.

Juan said, “The party for Totti's goodbye? Emotional. He was nervous in training all week.

“Before Roma-Genoa, we were in the dressing room and Francesco told us, 'If I don't score a penalty, I'll shoot the ball into the curva.'

“Luckily there was no penalty and he only launched the ball into the curva after the game.

“Totti's a great person, he deserved much more than that party. He's someone that helps the needy so much, sick children, without knowing anything outside [football].

“We're honoured to have played alongside him at Roma this past season.

“He could've won a lot with other clubs. Technically there are few in the world like him, he puts the ball wherever he wants from so far out."
