AS Roma captain Francesco Totti is edging closer to a playing return.
The 37-year-old has been sidelined since his team's 2-0 triumph over Napoli on October 18.
A statement from Roma read: "As part of his recovery program, Francesco Totti underwent a scan and had a check-up with Professor Mariani.
"Results showed the player's fitness has improved and he will increase his workload on the field from tomorrow.
"He will undergo further tests in around seven days."
