Signed Francesco Totti 10 Roma 2016-17 Farewell Dinner | Player Issued

Francesco Totti signed this Associazione Sportiva Roma 2016-17 Player Issued shirt, bearing the number 10, as part of the Una Squadra per la Vita farewell dinner occasion; the signing is authenticated by Photo Proof and the shirt is presented in a Luxury Gift Box. The shirt was sourced through Catawiki as part of its verified history and carries the Una Squadra per la Vita badge, connecting it directly to the farewell occasion that marked the end of Totti's twenty-five-year career at the club.

The Farewell Dinner Shirt: A Different Object From the Season Piece

Francesco Totti retired from professional football on 28 May 2017 after spending his entire career at Associazione Sportiva Roma. The Una Squadra per la Vita farewell dinner was the occasion that brought together the club, its supporters, and the football world to mark the end of that career. The shirt produced for that occasion carries the Una Squadra per la Vita badge on the chest, making it a distinct object from the standard 2016-17 season shirt. Where the season shirt documents the campaign, this shirt documents the farewell itself. For collectors who build around occasion-specific pieces, the distinction is immediate and significant.

The Player Issued Specification

A player-issued shirt is a garment prepared to match specification and issued directly to the player, identical in construction to the shirt worn during competitive fixtures. It is not a retail release and not a replica. Player-issued shirts carry the same performance fabric, printing, and badge construction as the on-pitch garment. The farewell dinner edition carries the additional Una Squadra per la Vita badge, making it a time-stamped release that the standard player-issued season shirt cannot replicate.

The Shirt in Detail

The Associazione Sportiva Roma 2016-17 farewell dinner shirt carries the deep red identity of the club and the Una Squadra per la Vita badge on the chest, the visual marker that connects this shirt to the farewell occasion rather than the standard season campaign. The shirt bears the number 10, the squad number Totti wore throughout his career at Roma. The signature of Francesco Totti appears on the shirt as captured in the signing proof photography. For full detail on signature placement and ink, the signing proof imagery is available with the piece.

Authentication Built for the Most Demanding Collectors

This signed football shirt is authenticated by Photo Proof, providing photographic documentation of the signing moment. The shirt was sourced through Catawiki, one of Europe's leading specialist auction platforms for authenticated collectibles, as part of its verified history. The Una Squadra per la Vita badge on the shirt provides an additional layer of occasion-specific provenance that connects this piece directly to the farewell event. For collectors in Europe, North America, and the Middle East who require documented authentication, Photo Proof and the Catawiki sourcing record provide a traceable chain of custody.

Associazione Sportiva Roma at the Stadio Olimpico: The Totti Legacy

Associazione Sportiva Roma, founded on 22 July 1927 and based at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, Italy, has won three Serie A titles and nine Coppa Italia trophies. Francesco Totti is the club's all-time leading scorer with 307 goals across all competitions. The farewell dinner shirt, carrying the Una Squadra per la Vita badge and Totti's signature, is the piece that documents not the season but the moment the career ended. For collectors who understand the difference between a season shirt and a farewell shirt, this is the rarer of the two objects.
