Eternal Pride

Eternal Pride: The Story of Rome’s Beloved Giallorossi is a sweeping, emotional history of AS Roma, one of football’s most passionate and storied clubs. From the club’s founding in 1927 to the dusty soul of Campo Testaccio, from the first wartime Scudetto to the golden Liedholm era, from Agostino Di Bartolomei’s quiet dignity to Francesco Totti’s eternal reign, this book follows Roma through glory, heartbreak, loyalty, rivalry, and unforgettable nights under the lights of the Stadio Olimpico. Written in the style of a sports journalist and football storyteller, Eternal Pride explores the players, managers, presidents, supporters, symbols, songs, and moments that made Roma more than a team. It revisits the 1983 and 2001 Scudetti, the pain of the 1984 European Cup final, the rise of Daniele De Rossi, the miracle against Barcelona, José Mourinho’s European triumph in Tirana, Roma Women’s expanding legacy, and the enduring voice of the Curva Sud. This is not only a book about trophies. It is a book about belonging: the wolf, the colors, the city, the scars, and the pride that survives every season. For Romanisti, football lovers, and readers drawn to clubs with soul, Eternal Pride tells the story of why Roma still runs through the heart of the Eternal City.
