Francesco Totti: Daniele De Rossi wants to stay at Roma
Roma captain Francesco Totti claims that team-mate Daniele De Rossi wants to commit his future to the club. De Rossi is out of contract at the end of the season and has been heavily linked with a move to Manchester City. However, the Italy midfielder has reportedly been offered a new deal worth €6 million per year to remain in Rome and while the player has been very coy about his future in recent days, Totti has revealed that De Rossi is keen to extend his contract with the Giallorossi. “From what I know, Daniele wants to stay at Roma,” the veteran No. 10 said. “He’s a big fan of this team, but the decision lies with him.” Totti’s future has also been the subject of much debate in recent months, with the World Cup winner having been left hurt and annoyed by criticism from Roma fans. There was also speculation that he did not see eye to eye with coach Luis Enrique but Totti insists he is enjoying life under the Spaniard, particularly now that Roma have put a difficult start to the season firmly behind them. “With Luis Enrique there has always been a good feeling and the whole squad has always been behind him,” the 35-year-old said. “What has been lacking in the past but not lacking now are the results, we continue in this way.” Totti scored twice from the spot in Roma’s 2-0 win over Chievo at the weekend and the Giallorossi are now seventh in Serie A, 10 points behind co-leaders AC Milan and Juventus.
