The 40-year-old F. Totti proved his worth this season as well - he appeared 25 times on the field, scored three goals, and provided seven assists.

Throughout his career at "Roma" club, F. Totti won five titles - he became Italian champion in the 2001-02 season, and later celebrated victory twice in the "Coppa Italia" tournament and the Italian Super Cup.

The new "Roma" sporting director Monchi indicated that F. Totti will not leave the club - he will take on the role of director.
