Totti's message for Marcello
Tuesday 1 July, 2008
Francesco Totti and Daniele De Rossi welcomed Marcello Lippi back to the Azzurri job.
“I want to wish Lippi and his staff the best, as I have an excellent rapport of personal and professional respect with them,” said the Roma captain.
It has been said that Lippi's return will convince Totti to come out of international retirement for the 2010 World Cup.
He has been out of action since April after damaging the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee and is not expected back until at least September.
“At this moment in time my only thought is on the recovery process,” insisted Totti.
His Roma teammate De Rossi is definitely a part of the Nazionale's plans and hopes to make up for his miss in the Euro 2008 penalty shoot-out against Spain.
“I would be very happy if Totti returned,” said the young midfielder. “I speak to him about everything, but not this.
