A youth product of the Giallorossi, Aquilani’s hugely promising career has hung in limbo over the past few seasons due to an inability to reach full fitness.

ROME (AFP) - AS Roma coach Luciano Spalletti is feeling positive ahead of his team’s clash at home to Sampdoria on Wednesday. Roma will move up to eighth in the Serie A table if they win this match at Rome’s Stadio Olimpico, which was postponed back in October due to a waterlogged pitch.

That left them hovering just above the relegation zone but ... Read Full Story

Coach Luciano Spalletti had hoped Totti would be fit for the trip to Sicily, but instead he has had to settle for the mercurial striker's return for the Group A clash at the Stadio Olimpico. Totti had been scheduled ... Read Full Story

ROME (AFP) - AS Roma coach Luciano Spalletti insisted on Monday that his team will play to win in Tuesday’s Champions League clash against Bordeaux at the Stadio Olimpico here. Roma only need a draw to ensure they progress from Group A to the knock-out stages of Europe’s premier competition but Spalletti says they won’t be going into the game with that mentality. "If we did something different (than playing to win) it would be a huge mistake," said Spalletti. "The psychological side will be vital in this match because Bordeaux have nothing to lose. "They have to win whereas we have two results ... Read Full Story

AS Roma coach Luciano Spalletti has accused Christian Panucci of 'lacking respect' for the club and his team-mates after the veteran defender refused to take his place on the bench against Napoli at the weekend. The 35-year-old was not prepared to take his place among the substitutes after being left out of the starting line-up, instead choosing to watch his side's 3-0 win from the stands. Panucci, who was fined for his actions, later revealed that his coach Spalletti does not respect him and he wants to leave the Giallorossi. A defiant Spalletti responded by saying: "He showed a lack of respect to me ... Read Full Story
