Francesco Totti – Il Gladiatore

Francesco Totti

He is well known for being one of the most loyal one–club men and one of the finest players of this era. The striker, who also plays as a trequartista, has won the Serie A Footballer of the Year twice and Italian Footballer of the Year a record five times. Totti is also the second highest goal scorer in the Serie A (highest among those still active) with 230 League goals. Having debuted with Roma at the young age of 16, Totti is now playing in his 22nd season for the club!

But The King of Rome has never won the Champions League with his beloved AS Roma. In fact, the only major honours he has ever won with the Serie A club are the Serie A title in 2001 and the Coppa Italia twice in 2007 and 2008. He too has won many runners-up medals in Italy. But in Europe, Roma were never a real force, with their best runs coming in 2007 and 2008 where they were eliminated in the quarter-finals by Manchester United on both occasions. It’s very sad that one of Europe’s most popular football players may never win a Champions League trophy.
