Season: 1997/98
Jersey Type: Player Issue Long -Sleeve / Official Print for Vincent Candela
Features :
The 1997/98 season was the beginning of a long and successful journey for Vincent Candela at AS Roma, following his January transfer from Guingamp. The French full-back quickly adapted to Serie A, showcasing his attacking instincts, elegant technique, and pinpoint delivery from the left flank.
Under manager Zdeněk Zeman, Roma played high-risk, high-reward attacking football, and Candela thrived as an adventurous wing-back in the 4–3–3 system. He made 15 league appearances in the second half of the season, offering width, energy, and balance to a side led by Francesco Totti and Abel Balbo.
Roma finished 4th in Serie A, qualifying for the UEFA Cup, with Candela earning praise for his immediate impact and tactical intelligence. His performances that season laid the foundation for what would become a defining spell in Rome, including a future Scudetto and World Cup triumph with France.
