Roma captain Francesco Totti hints that there is a possibility that he will recover in time for the game against Manchester United.

Totti missed the 2-0 defeat in the first leg at the Stadio Olimpico through injury however there are hopes that he will recover in time and he may even feature in the return leg at Old Trafford next week.

The Giallorossi missed the talisman greatly on Tuesday night and it would be a massive boost for them if Totti returns as his side hope to overturn their first leg aggregate deficit.

Totti was at the opening of a new Fiat-Yamaha store in Rome on Friday evening and he was asked by journalists whether he would be available for the game against Manchester United.

“I hope to be back pretty soon,” Totti told Il Romanista

“I am not sure if I’ll be back for the game but I am hoping that I will make it.”

Totti’s return would no doubt give Roma an advantage as they look to make a miracle in Manchester. The odds are heavily stacked up against them as United are favourites to progress.

However Roma are a completely different side when Totti is in the team and with the World Cup winner dragging them on anything is possible.

First though, the Giallorossi are in action against against Genoa and they will be hoping for maximum points as they try and close the gap on league leaders Inter.
