Totti considers a return to the national squad
Francesco Totti confirms he`s open for a return to the Italy national team. The AS Roma captain announced his retirement from international football in 2006, after the Azurri were crowned world champions in Germany.
`It depends on what my condition will be and on Lippi’s choices,` Totti told La Gazzetta dello Sport.
`I owe Lippi so much…`
Totti insisted the decision to quit the national team was caused by his fitness problems. `Il bimbo d`oro` also declared he wanted to concentrate exclusively on his beloved club, Roma.
Since his retirement with Italy, the club icon has kept on performing well for the Romans. This season he already scored seven goals in seven matches.
Lately, Italian media, his club, his manager and even his wife speculated about Totti`s possible return to the national team.
The 33-year-old is currently recovering from a knee injury. He`s still a major doubt for Roma’s trip to Milan next Sunday
