Founded by a merger in 1927, Roma has participated in the top tier of Italian football for all of its existence, except for the [[1951β52 Serie B|1951β52]] season. Roma has won [[Serie A]] three times, in [[1941β42 Serie A|1941β42]], [[1982β83 Serie A|1982β83]] and [[2000β01 Serie A|2000β01]], as well as nine ''{{lang|it|[[Coppa Italia]]|italic=no}}'' titles and two ''{{lang|it|[[Supercoppa Italiana]]|italic=no}}'' titles. In European competitions, Roma won the [[Inter-Cities Fairs Cup]] in [[1960β61 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup|1960β61]] and the [[UEFA Conference League]] in [[2022 UEFA Europa Conference League Final|2021β22]], while they finished runners-up in the [[1983β84 European Cup]], the [[1990β91 UEFA Cup]] and the [[2022β23 UEFA Europa League]]. Sixteen players have won the [[FIFA World Cup]] while playing at Roma: [[Attilio Ferraris]] and [[Enrique Guaita]] (1934); [[Guido Masetti]] and [[Eraldo Monzeglio]] (1934 and 1938); [[Aldo Donati (footballer)|Aldo Donati]] and [[Pietro Serantoni]] (1938); [[Bruno Conti]] (1982); [[Rudi VΓΆller]] and [[Thomas Berthold]] (1990); [[Aldair]] (1994); [[Vincent Candela]] (1998); [[Cafu]] (2002); [[Daniele De Rossi]], [[Simone Perrotta]] and [[Francesco Totti]] (2006); [[Paulo Dybala]] (2022). Since 1953, Roma has played home matches at the [[Stadio Olimpico]], a venue the club shares with city rivals [[SS Lazio|Lazio]]. With a capacity of over 72,000, the stadium is the [[List of football stadiums in Italy|second-largest]] of its kind in Italy, with only the [[San Siro]] able to seat more. The club plans to move to a [[Stadio della Roma|new stadium]], though it is yet to start construction. Having a strong local rivalry, Roma and Lazio contest the [[Derby della Capitale]]. The club's home colours are [[Carmine (color)|carmine red]] and [[golden yellow]], which gives Roma its nickname "''I Giallorossi''" ("The Yellow and Reds"). These colours have often been combined with white shorts. The club badge features a she-wolf, an allusion to the [[Founding of Rome|founding myth of Rome]]. ==History== {{Main|History of AS Roma}} ===Foundation=== [[File:FerrarisIV.jpg|thumb|upright|[[Attilio Ferraris]], Roma captain during their formative years]] AS Roma was founded in the spring of 1927 when Italo Foschi<ref name = lastoria/> initiated the merger of three older [[Italian Football Championship]] clubs from the city of Rome: [[Roman F.C.|Roman FC]], [[S.S.

Campo Testaccio was used through 1929 to 1940 until the team then moved to the [[Stadio Nazionale PNF|Stadio Nazionale del PNF]], where they spent 13 years. In the 1953β54 season, Roma moved to the [[Stadio Olimpico]], which it shares with Lazio. The stadium has undergone several changes over the years, with the most significant taking place in the 1989β90 season, when the stadium was mostly demolished and reconstructed for the [[1990 FIFA World Cup]] held in Italy. During reconstruction, Roma played its home matches at [[Stadio Flaminio]].
