Roma captain will miss Sunday’s Rome derby against after failing to recovery from a thigh strain picked up in the club’s 3-1 victory over Atalanta on the 2nd October.

Despite initial encouraging signs he has still yet to train with the squad and requires further treatment on the injury.

Roma released a statement confirming Totti’s absence.

“Francesco Totti will continue his rehabilitation following further scans which took place at Trigoria on Tuesday.

“He will continue physiotherapy treatment and will have another scan next week to evaluate his progress.”

It is possible that he will return in the following game a week later against Palermo but the club are being non-committal about when he will be available again for selection.

English supporter living in Nottingham, England. I also follow the fortunes of local side Nottingham Forest and due to the locality spend far more time there than Rome. However, Calcio and Roma inparticular are big passions of mine and I enjoy writing articles about them. Fell in love with Italian football, like so many, in the early nineties thanks to the wonderful Robert Baggio. Still the best player I’ve ever seen. However, Roma are my team after a visit to the city a few years ago. I have my own blog for English speaking/readers called ASRomaUK at http://asromauk.blogspot.com for all of you fellow Giallorossi tifosi.
