Roma handed Totti boost ahead of Europa tie

August 18, 2009

Roma captain Francesco Totti has been included in Luciano Spalletti's squad for Thursday's Europa League clash at Kosice.

Totti has recovered from a thigh injury and trained on Tuesday with the rest of his team-mates in preparation for their midweek European encounter in Slovakia.

The 32-year-old is Roma's record goalscorer, having netted over 200 times for the Giallorossi.

Totti's availability is a welcome boost for Spalletti, with Montenegrin forward Mirko Vucinic sidelined with a muscular injury.

Brazil forward Julio Baptista, who has been strongly linked with a move to West Ham in recent days, has been left out of Spalletti's 20-man squad.
