United Arabian Emirates team Al Jazira are after Roma captain Francesco Totti as his club won't renew his contract.

It's been a turbulent week for the Giallorossi, as the Ex Pupone's miraculous reversal against Torino put enormours pressure on his club to offer him a contract extension.

Plaudits from celebrities, other athletes and the media have poured in, but according to the Gazzetta dello Sport, President James Pallotta hasn't changed his mind and won't offer a new contract to his number 10.

While an extension would be financially viable, as the €1m of Totti's salary would be recouped by the sale of t-shirts and merchandising alone, Pallotta reportedly wants to avoid clashes in the changing room with Coach Luciano Spalletti.

While Totti has been vaguely linked to the Premier League's Leicester City and to teams in Major League Soccer, the club in pole to sign the captain is now believed to be Al Jazira.
