YOU could be forgiven for feeling a little jealous of the England football team, jetting off to Rome at just a few days’ notice. Near the top of most travel wish-lists, sights like the Colosseum, the Pantheon, and St Peter’s Basilica are legendary, but there’s plenty more to the Italian capital that can’t all fit on the cover of the guidebooks. We don’t imagine Gareth Southgate’s boys will get to go sightseeing, but here are a few lesser-known spots they should check out if they do… 1.
