Coach Fabio Capello hinted that he wants to leave the Italian club when his contract expires, which still has a year to run. Speaking to the Spanish newspaper "El Pais" he said: "I would like to have new opportunities abroad, especially in England."
Considering that the current manager of the club, C. Ranieri, is rumored to lose his job in the summer, it is a real possibility that F. Capello will take over.
In addition, "Roma," like all of Italian football, is affected by a financial crisis. Just four months ago, "Roma" was considered one of the favorites to win "Serie A" and the UEFA Cup. The team's play was also pleasing to fans, making them forget about the financial situation. However, the real situation is indicated by the fact that last summer, Italian football giants were on the verge of being excluded from all tournaments due to financial difficulties.
F. Capello is not the only member of "Roma" linked with "Chelsea." The club's symbol could also leave the struggling club and move to "Chelsea." "I don't want to stay in a small Rome, I want to play in a competitive Rome," the player stated. However, Totti is currently not for sale, and only in the event of a further deterioration of the financial situation, the club may be forced to sell their most valuable player. It is believed that the player himself would like to play in Spain and join the stars at "Real" club. This was also confirmed by his agent.
