History and heritage

This jersey was worn during a season marked by the presence of a young Francesco Totti, already a future captain, and by the arrival of coaches like Zeman, who brought a spectacular attacking style of play.
This was also a period when Roma consolidated its modern identity, with a simple yet powerful jersey, blending tradition and Italian performance.
