The Classic Football Shirt, an iconic store in the city that sells historic kits, stocks the shirts of the opposition on matchdays. For Roma fans, a welcome message greets them at the door: "Hello Roman fans. Show your match ticket and get 10% off."
Inside, the Roma shirts sit alongside those of Beckham and Giggs. The collection spans every era of the club, from the early 1990s to the shirts worn during the Scudetto-winning season. Totti's shirts make up a large share of the stock, and he also features on the store's Christmas jumper. In the design, Totti is dressed as Father Christmas and the she-wolf, the club's emblem, appears as a reindeer.
The display shows how far the club's identity has travelled beyond Italy. Manchester is one of Europe's football capitals, home to United and City, two of the most important and decorated clubs in the world. The store's Roma display, the article notes, is a symbol of Italian football across the globe.
