Como Denies Coming Francesco Totti
JAKARTA - The legend of AS Roma and the Italian national team, Francesco Totti, has recently become a topic of conversation after stating that he will return to play at a professional level.
He emphasized his seriousness in returning to play from retirement. Totti recently also revealed that he was contacted by one of the Serie A clubs.
Several Italian media have speculated that the club Totti is referring to is the promotion team Como 1907.
"Several Serie A clubs proposed it to me," Totti said at La Provincia.
It's just that, the media spotlight in Italy leads to the issue of salary. Of course, it's not cheap to bring in Totti and his compensation.

In addition, considering that he is 48 years old, is it in line with the club's investment plan.
The reason is, beyond his extraordinary quality, Francesco Totti has not played at the professional level for seven years.
No one can invest in him with a big financial commitment, if not for a sensational image return.
"The club is ready to shower him with money just to stay on the pitch for 10 minutes," several official newspapers said last weekend.
Meanwhile, Como, who has been linked with Totti in recent days, denied the rumors.
Mirwan Suwarso, who has just been inaugurated as President of Como 1907, thinks the speculation is too crazy.
"We can be extreme, but we shouldn't go to that level," he said in a special interview with La Provincia.
Despite the desire to play again, Totti doesn't just see his chances about money.
He has quite a strong principle, for example the club jersey color that has been Totti's basis for his career and life.
