Sergio Ramos thanks Totti as he receives limited edition boots

Just 2,500 pairs of the 'Totti Tiempo X Roma' boots were made, with Ramos lucky enough to get his hands on a pair thanks to Il Capitano himself.

And the Spaniard was quick to send his thanks via Instagram, in a post that has been viewed almost two million times.

"Legendary shoes for an everlasting captain," Ramos said, as he recorded himself opening the gold box.

"You can see this gift, a package I received from my friend Francesco Totti - a limited edition run, beautiful pair of boots to celebrate a 25-year career. I must admit you have good taste.

"Congratulations on your career, and thank you for thinking of me with this. A great greeting from here."

Ramos is not the only professional sportsman to have got his hands on a pair of Totti's boots - last week tennis star Rafael Nadal showed off his pair.
