Former Roma fullback Emerson Palmieri confessed that he is still a fan of the capital club despite his move to the Premier League.

Palmieri – now with Italy’s squad and playing for West Ham United for the past year – moved away from Roma in January 2018 after playing two seasons in the Italian capital.

The defender, however, remained attached to the club, as evidenced by his recent interview with Sky Sport.

“I’m still attached to Roma, I’m very fond of the club. When I can I watch Serie A matches because I always enjoy them,” said Emerson.
