Maxima Roma announces that Francesco Totti<\/strong> will join the club\u2019s basketball project<\/a> as Advisor to the ownership and delegate for fan base development and Corporate Social Responsibility operations.<\/strong><\/p>\n

An iconic athlete in the history of Rome\u2019s sporting culture, Totti has chosen to put his name and experience behind a long-term, sustainable project designed to bring the capital back to the highest levels of Italian and European basketball, starting with the Italian LBA Serie A and the EuroCup. The club\u2019s vision goes beyond competition, with a commitment to growing the sport throughout Rome and developing the next generation of players.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Why Totti Chose Maxima Roma<\/h2>\n

After a career that established him as one of the most recognizable figures in Italian sport, Totti will put his experience at the service of a sporting and business project with deep roots in Rome and international ambitions.<\/p>\n

His involvement reflects a shared vision: to build, with determination and joy, a sporting institution designed to last.<\/p>\n

Why Basketball<\/h2>\n

Totti\u2019s decision to enter the world of basketball reflects his desire to look toward the future and support the growth of a sport that is rapidly expanding in Italy and Europe, while still having significant untapped potential in the capital.<\/p>\n

Basketball offers an exciting platform to build communities, create shared experiences and connect with younger generations, all elements at the heart of Maxima Roma\u2019s mission.<\/p>\n

Why Maxima Roma<\/h2>\n

The Maxima Roma project was born from the meeting between the identity of the city and a global vision of basketball.<\/p>\n

The values that define the club \u2014 ambition, excellence, trust, joy, belonging and responsibility<\/strong> \u2014 are the same values that accompanied Totti throughout a career built on loyalty to a jersey and to a city.<\/p>\n

With Maxima Roma, Totti shares the belief that representing the capital is both a privilege and a responsibility, both on and off the court.<\/p>\n

Francesco Totti: \u201cWe want to build something that can last\u201d<\/h2>\n

\u201cI wanted new motivation and felt the desire to challenge myself by accepting a new challenge. The role and, above all, the project that was presented to me immediately convinced me.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very happy to be an active part of this project and I thank the club for the trust it has decided to place in me. The first objective will be to build a solid group, strengthen the team and create all the conditions to become a leading organization in Italian basketball.<\/p>\n

\u201cThen we will look toward Europe and beyond. Ambition is important, but even more important is the desire to build something that can stand the test of time: we want to give Rome and the people of Rome a basketball team to support, a team they can identify with and be proud of.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is why I accepted the role of Advisor to the ownership, with responsibility for fan base development and CSR operations,\u201d Francesco Totti<\/strong> said.<\/p>\n

Paul Matiasic: \u201cFrancesco\u2019s involvement confirms our identity\u201d<\/h2>\n

\u201cFrancesco\u2019s participation in the Maxima Roma project represents confirmation of our identity as a club and demonstrates that we are building something with which the entire city can identify.<\/p>\n

\u201cFew people understand better than him the responsibility of representing Rome at the highest level. We are proud to welcome him as our Advisor and delegate for key activities such as fan base development and CSR operations,\u201d Maxima Roma President Paul Matiasic<\/strong> said.<\/p>\n

Matiasic: \u201cHis role will not be purely symbolic\u201d<\/h2>\n

\u201cHaving someone of Francesco\u2019s caliber by our side further strengthens an already ambitious project. His role will not be purely symbolic.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrancesco\u2019s presence within the club represents a concrete commitment from someone who wants to help us build something meaningful. He will be a first-class partner for us and for our entire club, bringing his sporting instinct and unique vision, always aimed at doing what is best for Rome.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe capital deserves a great basketball team competing at the highest levels of domestic and European competitions, and we are working to create one that all Romans can be proud of,\u201d Matiasic added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
