Totti Retires

Totti spent his entire career at Roma, winning a Serie A title, two Coppa Italia titles, and two Supercoppa Italiana titles. He is the 2nd highest scorer of all time in the Italian league history with 250 goals and is the 6th highest scoring Italian in all competitions with 316 goals. Totti is the top goalscorer (and the most-capped player in the club’s history), holding the record for the most goals scored in Serie A while playing for a single club. He also holds the record for the youngest club captain in the history of Serie A.

On 17 July 2017, Totti confirmed his retirement from professional football and announced that he had accepted an offer from his former team (Roma) to become the club’s director.

On 18 September, Totti began studying for a course in order to obtain his UEFA B coaching license. However, he withdrew from the course two weeks later, as he was unable to attend the course regularly due to his commitments as a director of Roma.

It was a pleasure to watch him play, I’m so sad to see him go!

What an unbelievable career…a real gentleman and sportsman. Totti, you will be missed…
