Captain Francesco Totti has dedicated Roma’s 2-1 win over Atalanta to injured defender Leandro Castan.

The Brazil international is not expected to return until April after an MRI scan found a brain malfunction and following Roma’s victory in Bergamo, Totti was eager to show his support to the former Corinthians stopper, as well as young debutant Michele Somma.

“Winning when coming from behind is always difficult and even more so in Bergamo, as Atalanta are tough fighters,” he said, as reported by Football Italia.

“Many compliments to Michele Somma for his Serie A debut, which represents a source of pride for our youth academy.

“Above all an affectionate embrace for Leo. He’s a great man and will face this moment with the same grit he puts into each game. We are waiting for him.”
