Francesco Totti is a footballer from which country?

Francesco Totti (born 27 September 1976) is an Italian former professional footballer who played solely for Roma and the Italy national team primarily as an attacking midfielder or second striker, but could also play as a lone striker or winger. He is often referred to as "Er Bimbo de Oro" (The Golden Boy), "L'Ottavo Re di Roma" (The Eighth King of Rome), "Er Pupone" (The Big Baby), "Il Capitano" (The Captain), and "Il Gladiatore" (The Gladiator) by the Italian sports media. A creative offensive playmaker renowned for his vision, technique, and goalscoring ability, Totti is considered to be one of the greatest Italian players of all time and Roma's greatest player ever.

In 2009, Totti helped launch a new campaign promoting "Football Adopting Abandoned Children", which came about in collaboration with the "Friends of Children" and the "Association of Italian Players". In the project, he adopted a team of around 11 young Kenyans to play football in Nairobi, and then to coach them along the way.

Totti recorded a video message for a comatose hospital patient who awoke from her coma when his voice was played.

To the 16% who missed this: his name is TOTTI and the jersey says ROMA.

Lilly honey, please pay attention. Do try to provide reasonable options, which rarely you do. But you can as you have demonstrated, admittedly very very seldom.

John W Shreve, That was not a subtle hint, it was a glaring answer to her question. Might as well have had the answer in flashing light. Do wish Trivia would stop using computer generated people that don't even exist

If you examine the picture carefully, you will detect a subtle hint which some would say, is a giveaway.

Howard Groopman, lol. And with a last name like that, what else could it be?

I’m so happy that I was able to correctly answer a football/soccer related question—even if I just read his shirt for the answer! Usually, I just use a replace question for most sports questions.

I am so sorry to say this but Lilly submits questions on the same level as Brian!

Howard Groopman, Three days later and the percentage wrong is down to 12%. So far Lilly has been pretty consistent in showing the correct answer in the picture.
