Francesco Totti
Francesco Totti's wife Ilary Blasi has backed him to play for Italy at the World Cup.

She is the latest to join a chorus of calls for the Roma man to be picked by coach Marcello Lippi. He has left the door open for Totti, and Blasi said her husband should do the right thing and walk through it.

"I want Francesco to go to South Africa," she told Diva e Donna magazine

"I will be following him there with our children."

Totti has been absent from the Azzurri since 2006 when he called time on his international career. Since then he has often welcomed the idea of a recall.

In an interview with La Repubblica last month Totti said: "I will decide in April. If Marcello Lippi calls me up, if I am fit and if the group wants me, I will go."
