Totti excited by Roman recruitment
Monday 30 June, 2008
Roma captain Francesco Totti has returned to training and is enthusiastic about the Giallorossi’s summer transfer campaign.
Totti picked up a serious knee injury while playing against Livorno on April 19 and missed the end of the capital club’s season.
But the talismanic star has enjoyed a speedy recovery and is already running at full pace at Roma’s training ground in Trigoria with the hope of featuring in the Super Cup on August 24.
“I am working with dedication because I want to be ready for the start of the season,” he said. “Everything is going well and I can’t wait to get started again.”
Roma have begun making reinforcements ahead of their 2008-09 Scudetto push and have pounced for the defensive duo of John Arne Riise and Simone Loria.
“I am crossing my fingers for the new arrivals,” Totti stressed.
“Riise and Loria are important reinforcements and they will give us a hand towards our objectives.
“And I’m sure that the transfer campaign won’t finish there. Another big player will be brought in and will present himself as a major force for the new season.”
