Roma is determined not to become the next victim of the "Drake curse."

The club jokingly tweeted Monday that it was banning all players from taking photos with Drake until the season is over. The announcement appears to have been spurred by Paris Saint-Germain's 5-1 loss to Lille on Sunday - their biggest defeat in 19 years - which came after left-back Layvin Kurzawa took a photo with Drake at one of the rapper's recent concerts.

Manchester United had hoped the curse would work in their favor after tweeting a photo of Drake in a Barcelona jersey, but it was to no avail as they lost Tuesday's Champions League encounter 3-0.
