Captain Daniele De Rossi will bring the curtain down on his 18-year career with Roma at the end of the season, the Serie A side announced on Tuesday.
The 35-year-old former World Cup winning midfielder will play his final game at home against Parma on May 26, but will not be retiring from professional football.
"(De Rossi) plans to pursue a new adventure away from Rome," the club said in a statement.
"It will be the end of an era."
De Rossi has spent his entire senior career with his hometown team coming through the club's academy system.
