Daniele De Rossi met his idol Roy Keane in Rome yesterday and had dinner with the ex-Manchester United midfielder, Jamie Carragher, Ian Wright, and Gary Neville.
Premier League legends Roy Keane, Carragher, Wright and Gary Neville paid a surprise visit to Roma boss Daniele De Rossi on Thursday.
La Repubblica newspaper reports that the meeting took place at a famous restaurant in the capital, Core de Roma in via Vetulonia. It’s an iconic street in Rome, where Giallorossi and Italy legend Totti grew up as a kid.

It was a meaningful meeting for De Rossi as the former midfielder, now the Roma coach, has never hidden his admiration for Keane.
A few years ago, De Rossi said that the ex-Manchester United star was the only person he’s ever asked for a picture with.
“I was too embarrassed to ask to Maradona, but I couldn’t resist with Roy.”
Keane, Carragher, Wright and Neville spent the last few days in Italy for their podcast series, The Overlap, and were spotted in Turin a few days ago.
