Lebanese fan’s devotion repaid with Trigoria visit

Lebanese superfan Bako Karnib got an exclusive chance to meet his idols at Trigoria this week after dedicating an entire vacation in Rome to the Giallorossi.

Karnib travelled specifically to the Eternal City from Beirut to get a sight of the players he admires and, after watching the team draw with Bologna on Monday night, spent hours each day outside the training ground to get further mementos of his trip.

Once the club got wind of Bako’s devotion we invited him inside Trigoria to make his dream come true just hours before his return flight drew a close to his Giallorossi-inspired trip.

“I came to Rome to make my dream come through by seeing the Eternal City and to watch AS Roma – Totti has been my idol since I was 10 years-old,” Bako told asroma.com.

“It was great meeting the players inside Trigoria, especially Daniele De Rossi!”
