AS Roma celebrates its 99th anniversary with a special gift: a series of murals created by Roman artist Fabio Ferrone. The works, made from recycled materials, were displayed in the Testaccio and Trastevere districts, delighting fans. The team, which finished the 2025 season in third place in Serie A with 73 points (23 wins, 4 draws, 11 losses), continues to strengthen its bond with the city through cultural initiatives.

Who is Fabio Ferrone?

Fabio Ferrone is a Roman artist known for his pop art and use of recycled materials. His works, often temporary, are appreciated for their ecological message and vibrant aesthetic. For AS Roma’s birthday, Ferrone created posters on cardboard, left around the historic districts of the capital. The works, made on removable panels, were quickly stolen, as intended by the artist to avoid damaging the walls.

Why Testaccio and Trastevere?

Testaccio and Trastevere are neighborhoods symbolic of Roman identity and AS Roma fandom. The choice of these locations is no coincidence: both districts have a historic connection to the team and its supporters. The artistic initiative, in addition to celebrating the club’s birthday, strengthens the bond between AS Roma and the local community.

What to expect in the new season?

With the 2026-27 season approaching, AS Roma aims to improve on last year’s result, when it finished 14 points behind leader Inter. The next match on the schedule is against Parma, at home, on February 14, 2027. Fans hope that the team, which scored 59 goals and conceded 31 last season, will continue to grow and provide excitement.
