The club is known for its dry sense of humor
Bosses at Italian soccer club AS Roma have banned players from posing for snaps with rapper Drake, insisting he’s bad news for European sportsmen.
Paul Pogba’s Manchester United also went down 2-1 to Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup after he joined Drake for a snap backstage at his recent Manchester Arena gig, and Arsenal lost 1-0 to Everton after Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang posed with the rap star at the O2 in London. Apparently the curse of rapper @Drake strikes again – he took a picture with PSG's Layvin Kurzawa earlier this week.Drake & Aubameyang: Arsenal lost vs. Everton— Get French Football News April 14, 2019And now AS Roma bosses aren’t taking any chances.“All Roma players banned from taking photos with Drake until the end of the season,” a tweet on the team’s official Twitter account reads.
However other teams might be wishing they posted the same statement as a part of their actual policy. For good reason.The rap star was also pictured backstage with UFC superstar Conor McGregor’s before his big 2018 fight against Khabib Nurmagomedov, holding up the Irish flag. The Irishman lost in the fourth round.
