Francesco Totti considers future as Roma director, could become agent

Roma forward Francesco Totti has hinted that he could be entering the final few months of his playing career.

Totti's contract expires at the end of June, and the 40-year-old has been offered a six-year deal to become a director.

"I've been thinking a lot about what I intend to do these past few months," he told Canale 5.

"Of course I still love playing. I could become a director or I could still be playing, or maybe I decide to become an agent and discover new champions because I've got quite a bit of experience in football."

Totti has made only rare substitute appearances for Luciano Spalletti's team this season.

A rift between the pair a year ago led to speculation that he was going to retire last summer, but he then signed a one-year contract extension.

Spalletti recently said he would only extend his own contract if Totti extended his, but the forward joked: "He wouldn't play me anyway.

"But I would keep Spalletti as our coach -- he's the future of Roma and the club can win things with him. He's a great coach. I hope he stays."
