“Totti was my favourite player as a kid, but I never tried to emulate him. I just try to be myself, the kind of footballer I am. I had favourite footballers but I didn’t watch so much sport.”

“I had a physiotherapist who worked with Roma and he helped me realise my dream of an autographed shirt, Totti once came to Juve and brought it to me and I couldn’t believe it.”
