There are plenty of great options: Giggs, Scholes, Baresi, Maldini, Facchetti, Puyol, etc.

For me though, the greatest is Francesco Totti. The others above played for clubs who won multiple trophies, and all won the champions league at least once. Aside from a smattering of Coppa Italias and one Scudetto, Totti didn’t win anything with Rome.

For me, it’s easier for a top player to stay at a top club, rather than be a top player like Totti and stay at a club that was rarely considered the best in Serie A. For my money, he is the greatest one-club man of all time.

Who would you choose?

    Totti away from Rome would have failed

        Is called opinion. It s not the first great player who needs a specific environment and condition to perform. He was snart enough not to leave Rome to become a legend

    Thomas Muller (an honourable mention not the greatest), plyed in Bayern Munich and has never has shown unwavering loyalty. I understand Bayern is a top club however even when he’s gotten fewer minutes, he’s still remained loyal. Even when he’s not on the pitch, Radiomuller is the spirit of the club, he represents us!

    Totti is no brainer but it’s not fault of Maldini that he was part of a legendary club and Greatest is a subjective term that can mean overall success or just loyalty without any consideration for accolades won. Either way I respect every such individual for their love for the game.
