He revealed in a press statement to the American Fox Channel that he had received an official offer from the Arab Gulf League to play in it along with another offer from the American League and from the Italian team Sampdoria and before them earlier than Real Madrid.
The Italian legend said that clubs from the UAE and America tried to sign me, and the president of Sampdoria, Massimo Ferrero, was ready to offer everything until he signed with me.
"Everyone is free to make the decision that he deems appropriate," added the former Roma club captain. "I had the opportunity to end my career in Italy and abroad, but I had doubts about whether I could really continue playing for a year or two and in the end that wouldn't change anything."
Francesco Totti played Roma 786 games in 25 years and won the Italian League title in 2001, and the Italian international did not wear any shirt other than Roma.
The Italian legend did not reveal in his statements the identity of the Emirati club he was negotiating.
