Roma has a long history, stretching back 85 years. In that time hundreds of players have starred for the club, both Italians and foreigners. It’s too difficult to count the number of players born on Italian soil (you’d need a whole book on them alone), but it’s easier to compile the figures on overseas players – including new recruits Bradley, Leandro Castan, Dodô, Goicoechea, Marquinhos, Piris, Tachtsidis and youngsters Lucca and Svedkauskas – with the number now standing at 162.
And the numbers just keep on rising. Piris and Svedkauskas are the club’s first representatives of Paraguay and Lithuania respectively. Bradley became the Giallorossi’s first American when he signed recently. The former Chievo man will not only fill a hole in midfield –one of the best defensive midfielders in the league strengthening the engine room – but he’s also made history. He becomes Roma’s first player from across the pond. New entry USA now means that players from 41 countries have turned out for the side from the capital.
Brazil and Argentina lead the way in terms of how many Giallorossi they’ve supplied: 37 and 31 respectively. Brazil has always contributed a great deal to Roma. In the last transfer window alone 4 new Brazilians joined the club in the shape of Leandro Castan, Dodô, Marquinhos and Lucca. A look at the past sees illustrious names like Aldair, Zago, Cafu, Emerson, and those are just the players who featured in the side which won the third Scudetto. In terms of goalkeepers we’ve seen Doni (along with his brother Marangon, who never made an appearance), Julio Sergio and Artur with Spalletti and Ranieri at the helm. Going back to the 1980s we must mention Falçao and Cerezo, two world-class stars in the Viola and Liedholm era. Da Costa (1955-1960) was the first, the forward holding the record of the most derby goals in the league (9) along with Delvecchio. And what about the Argentines? A few foreign-born Italians in the ‘30s (Chini, Roma’s first foreign player, Scopelli) along with greats like Manfredini, Samuel, Batistuta, Balbo and Lamela.
After the South Americans, Sweden boasts the next largest contingent, having provided 10 players over the years. The most recent Christian "Chippen" Wilhelmsson is remembered more for his wife, stunning model Oksana Anderson, than for his ability on a football pitch. His more illustrious predecessors include Selmosson, Nordahl and Dahlin, third with his country in USA ’94.
Next on the list is France with 8: Candela (the first Frenchman to don the yellow and red) and Zebina, champions in 2001, then Dacourt, Mexes, Faty, Giuly, Menez and Nego.
Romania and Spain come next with 7 entries. Chivu (Roma’s highest fee paid for a defender, 18 million in 2004) and Del Sol (versatile midfielder ’70-’72) the most successful of those two nations. Goicoechea, Roma’s new keeper, brings the Uruguayan contingent up to 6, with Ghiggia, Schiaffino and Fonseca starring in different eras.
When you mention Germany, Rudolf Völler (87’-92’), “the Flying German”, immediately springs to mind. But there’s also Schnellinger (defender, 64’-65’, who scored the goal that made it 1-1 in Italy 4-3 Germany) and Hässler (a diminutive attacking midfielder, 91’-94’). Then come Albania (2), Austria (2), Belarus (1), Bosnia (1), Cameroon (1), Chile (1), Congo (1), Ivory Coast (2), Costa Rica (1), Denmark (3), Egypt (1), Wales (1), Ghana (2), Japan (1), Greece (4), Honduras (1), Yugoslavia (3), Lithuania (1), Mali (1), Morocco (1), Montenegro (1), Nigeria (2), Norway (2), Netherlands (1), Paraguay (1), Peru (1), Polond (1), Portugal (3), Russia (2), United States (1), Switzerland (1), Turkey (1), and Hungary (3).
The list also includes players who were registered with the club but never actually featured in a competitive match. Our study takes in any players included in the first team squad. An example of this is Costa Rican Martinez, who was signed from Brescia on deadline day in the summer of 2006 but never played for the Giallorossi due to a long injury. The same fate befell Ivorian Lassisi, a knee injury in his opening game against Boca Juniors (2001) spelling the end of his career. Gulunoglu, a German-born Turk, was a mysterious figure around Trigoria, Capello never once picked him in the 1999/2000 campaign.
Peruvian defensive midfielder Benitez had more success with the Giallorossi in the 1960s. Welshman John Charles, who formed a devastating front line with Sivori at Juve, came to Roma to finish his career in 1962/63.
Japanese international Nakata played a lot of matches for Roma and was had a key role in the match against Juventus which decided the title race in 2001. Stekelenburg is the only Dutchman to have featured for the Giallorossi, since he joined in 2011. Swiss Unal spent a season on loan at the club in 2007/08 but rarely joined up with the first team. Two Albanians have donned the Giallorossi colours in the shape of Krieziu – a league champion in 1942 – and Boshnjaku between 2004 and 2006. There are many more foreign players and dozens more stories to tell. The only continent missing on the map is Oceania: no one from Australasia has even been signed by Roma.
罗马队是一家有着85年悠久历史的俱乐部。在这段漫长的时间里有数以百计的球员闪耀在俱乐部的舞台上，无论他们是本土还是外籍球员。难以计数的球员诞生在意大利这片土壤上（仅仅为了介绍他们你就需要整整一本书），但统计外籍球员的数量就要容易得多——包括新加盟的布拉德利、卡斯坦、多多、戈伊科耶切亚、马尔奎尼奥斯、皮里斯、塔什特西迪斯以及两名新秀卢卡、斯维迪考斯卡斯——现在这个数字达到了162人。
而且这个数字还会不断的上升。皮里斯和斯维迪考斯卡斯分别是俱乐部历史上首次引进的巴拉圭和立陶宛球员。最近签约的布拉德利则成了罗马队的第一个美国人。这位前切沃发动机不仅仅是来填补中场空缺的——目前联赛中最好的中场拦截者——同时他也创造了历史。他成为罗马历史上第一位横跨大西洋的球员。美国人的加盟意味着已经有41个来自不同国家的球员成为首都球队的一部分。
巴西和阿根廷引领着红黄军团的外援榜：分别有37和31人。巴西人为罗马队做出了杰出的贡献。在转会窗口关闭前，有4名巴西球员加盟球队分别是卡斯坦、多多、马尔奎尼奥斯和卢卡。瞧瞧过去那些球员显赫的名字：阿尔代尔、扎戈、卡福、埃莫森，他们曾一起帮助球队获得了第三座联赛冠军奖杯。门将方面我们看到了多尼（还有他的弟弟Marangon，尽管从未为球队出过场），塞尔吉奥和阿图尔曾在斯帕莱蒂和拉涅利手下效力。回到80年代我们肯定会想到维奥拉和利德霍尔姆时期的世界级球星法尔考和塞雷佐。达科斯塔（1955-1960）是球队历史上的第一位巴西球员，他和德尔维奇奥一起保持着德比战进球最多的记录（9球）。阿根廷人的表现又如何呢？一些出生在意大利的阿根廷人曾在30年代效力于球队（奇尼：罗马历史上首位外援、斯科佩里）连同其他伟大的球员如曼弗雷蒂尼、萨穆埃尔、巴蒂斯图塔、巴尔博以及拉梅拉。
除了南美球员，瑞典自豪的构成了外援队伍的第二梯队，多年来为球队提供了10名球员。最近一位球员克里斯蒂安威廉松，相较于他在球场上的表现，人们似乎更多的是记住了他的妻子，惊艳无比的模特Oksana Anderson。在他之前比他更出名的球员有赛尔莫森、诺达尔以及达赫林，他们的国家曾在94年世界杯上获得第三名。
接下来是8名法国球员：坎德拉（第一位身披红黄战袍的法国人）和泽比纳一起赢得了2001年的联赛冠军。其他还包括达科特、梅克斯、法蒂、久利、梅内以及内戈。
罗马尼亚西班牙球员各自都有7人：基伏（罗马所引进身价最高的后卫，2004年以1800万欧元加盟）和德尔索尔（70-72赛季效力球队的中场多面手）是这2个国家最成功的代表。戈伊科耶切亚，罗马新引进的门将。同时还有6名乌拉圭球员曾为球队效力：吉希亚、斯齐亚菲诺和丰塞卡则在不同时期扮演过球队的主角。
当你提到德国，沃勒尔（87-92赛季）“禁区内的狐狸”立刻映入脑海。同时还有施内林格（后卫，64-65赛季效力球队，他的进球曾使德国队将比分追成1比1，最终还是意大利4比3战胜德国队）以及哈斯勒（一个身材矮小的攻击性中场，91-94赛季效力于球队）。然后是阿尔巴尼亚（2人）、奥地利（2人）、白俄罗斯(1人)、波黑(1人)、喀麦隆(1人)、智利(1人)、刚果(1人)、象牙海岸（科特迪瓦）(2人)、哥斯达黎加(1人)、丹麦(3人)、埃及(1人),威尔士(1人)、加纳(2人)、日本(1人)、希腊(4人)、洪都拉斯(1人)、南斯拉夫(3人)、立陶宛(1人)、马里(1人)、摩洛哥(1人)、黑山(1人)、尼日利亚(2人)、挪威(2人)、荷兰(1人)、巴拉圭(1人)、秘鲁(1人)、波兰(1人)、葡萄牙(3人)、俄罗斯(2人)、美国(1人)、瑞士(1人)、土耳其(1人)、匈牙利(3人)。
这份名单中还包括曾和俱乐部签约但从未为球队出过场的球员。我们收录了所有效力于一线队的球员。比如哥斯达黎加球员马丁内斯，他在2006年的夏天从布雷西亚加盟，但由于长期伤病从未为罗马出过场。同样情况还发生在科特迪瓦人拉西西的身上，由于在和博卡青年队（2001年）的热身赛上拼抢造成膝盖受伤，就此结束了他的职业生涯。Gulunoglu，一个出生在德国的土耳其后裔，是一个相当神秘的球员，在1999-2000赛季卡佩罗从来没有挑选过这名球员参加比赛。
秘鲁防守型中场贝尼特斯曾在60年代在罗马取得过成功，威尔士人约翰查尔斯曾在尤文图斯和西沃里一起构成强大的进攻线，之后于1962-63赛季转会来到罗马。
日本国际级球员中田英寿曾为罗马效力过2个赛季，在2001年罗马与尤文图斯的冠军争夺战中曾经扮演了关键性的角色。斯特克伦伯格2011年加盟红黄军团，是球队历史上唯一的一位荷兰球员。瑞士人乌纳尔2007-08赛季曾被租借到球队一个赛季，但很少有机会进入一线队。有2位阿尔巴尼亚球员曾穿上红黄军团的球衣：Krieziu——1942年联赛冠军成员。Boshnjaku曾于2004-06赛季效力球队。关于外籍球员其实我们还有许多的故事可以将。目前唯一在地图上还没有罗马球员的是大洋洲，甚至没有来自于澳大利亚的球员签约罗马。 |
