Last night the Nerazzurri were at the Stadio Olimpico for a 2-2 draw, and Spalletti was given a hostile reception by the crowd, while Totti left the media centre after being told the Tuscan was coming.
“The reception was the least I could expect,” Spalletti shrugged, speaking to DAZN.
“I have lots of friends here though and a lot of people I really like. I lived in Rome for seven years, I was in touch with the beauty of the city and I had a great time. So it’s a big part of my life.
“Did I really like Totti? Even more than the others. There were many moments where he was decisive for the team.
“Consequently I loved his extent of attachment to the team.
“We didn’t see each other, if we had I’d have gladly greeted him.”
