The former striker accepted an invitation to appear as an honorary guest at a media event in Moscow on April 8, where posters announcing Totti’s presence have already appeared with the slogan: “The Emperor arrives in the Third Rome”.

This has caused outrage among Italians and criticism directed at Totti, who is being urged to cancel his trip to Moscow due to Russian military aggression in Ukraine.
