After signing former Everton and Chelsea striker Samuel Eto'o, Antalyaspor are looking for another top-notch transfer in Roma's captain Francesco Totti.

The Turkish side tried to sign Barcelona legend Ronaldinho as well as former Real Madrid player Antonio Cassano but their bids failed.

They have now turned their attention to Roma's all-time top scorer and most capped player by offering him €10m (£6.94) for each year he plays.

Italian media support it is very unlikely that the legendary forward will leave the club he has spent his entire career at even though he gets €4.5m (£3.12m) per year.

The Italian is turning 39 in September and the Romans' manager Rudi Garcia is still counting on him as he included him on his pre-season plans.

Totti has amassed 588 appearances with the Giallorossi and has scored 243 goals.

Antalyaspor have expressed extreme confidence as they recently claimed that in the next five years they will be signing Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi.
