The Latest AS Roma News
Former Roma captain Giuseppe Giannini has criticised the way Francesco Totti was treated by the club.
Totti walked out of Roma on Tuesday, citing a number of factors as a 30-year official association with the club came to an end. Giannini was Totti's idol as a child, and now the former midfielder has given his take on the situation. He told Il Tempo: "At Roma, the most important decisions are made by people who are far away, who don't live at Trigoria and then take the credit for the good things, from a distance. I'm really disappointed with the company in recent years. "Francesco isn't stupid. He himself asked for time because he didn't feel able to play a role as he wasn't ready yet. But this time was not granted to him because, in fact, as he said, he was an inconvenient character, like all the Romans, as I clearly was too." Asked for his opinion on club president James Pallotta, Giannini said: "The same as Francesco explained, he spoke as a director but also as a man. I would have done the same thing." As for Totti's next role, Giannini believes it will only be a matter of time before he is back in work elsewhere. "I don't think he will have trouble finding a role that's suitable for him. He's certainly not a kid now. But he has definitely finished with Roma." Want more Roma news on your timeline? Like the new Giallorossi Yorkshire Facebook page!
