Rome Mayor Virginia Raggi on
Monday responded via Twitter to AS Roma captain Francesco
Totti's appeal for the city to get moving on approving the
club's plan for a new stadium.
"Dear Francesco Totti we are working on it," Raggi posted on
Twitter.
"#Let'sbuildthisstadium respecting the rules. See you at city
hall to talk about it".
Last week Raggi's administration issued a not-favourable
opinion in several aspects of the stadium project, while
stressing that it still wants the plan to go ahead.
As a result, Totti tweeted: "we want our modern Colosseum, a
cutting-edge structure for our fans and all sports
enthusiasts!".
Both Totti and Raggi's tweets used the hashtag #FamoStoStadio
- 'let's build this stadium' in Roman dialect.
Roma coach Luciano Spalletti jumped in front of Sky TV
cameras Sunday to add his voice, using the dialect phrase, to
the campaign.
