Italian top-flight soccer club Roma wants nothing to do with the infamous “Drake Curse.”

The Serie A team tweeted Monday that all its players have been banned from taking pictures with Drake until the end of the season.

The 6ix God’s ties to losing teams are well-documented, with the Toronto rapper consistently throwing his support behind squads that end up on the wrong side of the ledger.

Roma’s decision likely comes after Paris Saint-Germain left-back Layvin Kurzawa took a photo with Drake at a recent concert. PSG went on to lose 5-1 at the hands of Lille Sunday, which happened to be the franchise’s most lopsided defeat in 19 years.
