Vincent Candela gave an interview to Repubblica, where he also discussed his autobiography and Totti's return to Roma: "Francesco and I are now even writing buddies. I hope to see him back at the club soon, which will be fighting for the Scudetto until the end this year. With him, Roma would be even stronger."
The former Roma full-back weighs in on the current coach of the Roman club: "Gasperini is a special coach. I'm convinced he can bring the Scudetto back to Trigoria: he'll fight for it until the end with Inter, who remain a stronger and more diverse team than Roma."
Candela: "Dybala should be declared a world football heritage."
Vincent Candela on the cause of the comebacks, especially in the Champions League: " As the coach says, it's important to expand the squad, but Roma isn't yet ready to compete on equal terms with the big teams in European football."
The former Roma full-back praised La Joya: "Every time Dybala touches the ball, my heart skips a beat and I feel younger. Paulo should be declared a world football heritage."
Candela on a memorable experience from his career at Roma: " Beyond the trophies, I think back to the unique bond that was created in the locker room during the Scudetto year. With Capello on the bench, I gave my best, because I was kind of his godson."
Roma's last Scudetto-winning winger concluded with the funniest episode he remembers from those years: "In 1999, when I was so close to joining Inter. Upon returning from the summer retreat, I hid in Totti's car to avoid the protests at Trigoria. Francesco had tinted windows, but the fans discovered me and smashed his car."
