Francesco Totti has returned to the Roma squad, after being dropped for the win over Palermo.
The Giallorossi captain gave an interview in which he appeared to criticise the club and Coach Luciano Spalletti, and was subsequently not named in the squad to face the Sicilians.
The incident caused quite a stir in Italy, with notable names from inside and outside of football weighing-in with their opinions.

The incident caused quite a stir in Italy, with notable names from inside and outside of football weighing-in with their opinions.
However, in today’s Press conference Spalletti declared that he wouldn’t talk about Totti anymore, and it appears the rift has at least been partly healed with Er Pupae’s inclusion in the squad for Empoli.
Roma squad to face Empoli: Lobont, Rudiger, Digne, Nainggolan, Castan, Strootman, Perotti, Dzeko, Totti, Salah, Maicon, Falque, Pjanic, Keita, Vainqueur, El Shaarawy, Florenzi, Szczesny, De Sanctis, Emerson Palmieri, Torosidis, Manolas, Zukanovic
