Francesco Totti and Luciano Spalletti return to share the spotlight in the new Amaro Montenegro commercial , airing November 8th. After the success of their previous Western-style duel, the two protagonists reunite this time at the coach's estate in Montaione, Tuscany, for a new, tongue-in-cheek adventure. The advertising campaign offers a cinematic story, in which the former Roma captain must face a series of tests organized by his former coach.
The story, Adnkronos reports , begins with Spalletti's dinner invitation to Totti, which quickly turns into a unique treasure hunt. Through video calls, the coach remotely guides the former Giallorossi number 10 along a course filled with obstacles, until they reach a charming treetop bar. Here the two meet for the final toast , accompanied by the brand's famous jingle and the motto "Sapore Vero" (True Flavor) . Topping off the sequence is Totti's inevitable quip: "Do you have any ice?"
Totti and Spalletti, their relationship rekindled even off-set.
The new advertising collaboration represents another opportunity to showcase the renewed bond between Totti and Spalletti, who enjoyed a complex relationship during the final years of the Roma captain's career. The former number 10 commented with his usual wit on his experience with the coach : "From one ad to the next, I'd say we're finding each other again. I had fun, and I noticed that the coach still enjoys watching me struggle."
Spalletti also emphasized the personal significance of the meeting, explaining how filming became an opportunity to spend time together away from the pitch : "To shoot the commercial, I invited Francesco to my house. It was another opportunity to revisit our stories, about football, and especially about real life. It was wonderful to meet up not only on set but also at the table with so many friends."
