ROME: Roma legend Francesco Totti’s iconic number 10 shirt, which he wore for the final time on May 28, has been launched into space, the Serie A club said Wednesday. The 40-year-old played his final game after 24 years with the capital-city side in a 3-2 win against Genoa. And as a tribute to ‘immortalise’ the forward a rocket carrying the number 10 shirt, from his final game, was successfully launched from French Guyana. “Mission complete: on Tuesday night history was made as Francesco Totti’s final shirt as a Roma player was successfully launched into space,” the club said. Totti played 786 matches for Roma in total after joining as a schoolboy in 1989, scoring a club-record 307 goals, and won the 2006 World Cup with Italy.
