Football legend Francesco Totti made a heartwarming visit to Abu Dhabi's Sheikh Khalifa Medical City on Wednesday, encouraging young fans to pursue their passion.
He spent time with children battling thalassemia and oncology-related illnesses, handing out autographed footballs and posing for photographs.
Totti’s visit followed the Abu Dhabi premiere of The Italian Dream, a reality TV show that offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for a future star to play in Italy’s premier professional football league, Lega Serie A.
The former AS Roma player spent his entire career at the club, winning multiple trophies and scoring 250 goals.
