The Lazio Women is ready to salute a flag of the team: the midfielder Arianna Pezzottiwho has been with the Biancoceleste club since 2011, said goodbye with a touching message published on his Instagram profile. The post features the most representative images of his Biancoceleste career, but it is his message that deeply touches the heart. His words are the essence of Lazio and exude love.
I would have liked to leave you in silence, in that elegant silence that only those who do not truly love can wear. But since you are important to me and the silence at a certain point would have become deafening for my heart, it is necessary to give you my words, to avoid the risk of sleeping empty nights.
I was a child when I first wore this shirt and I still clearly remember all my emotions. From that day and for all the years that followed, I never even remotely thought of doing without it.
When you are born with these colors in your skin you can only dream of wearing them and doing so forever.
I realized my dream when I was 8 years old and to this day I can say that I have always given my all for this even though I did it with my peculiarities.
I have seen presidents, managers, staff, coaches and teammates change. I have met real, heartfelt people. I have also met great professionals who are very lacking in empathy. Each of them has left me something, made me think, get angry. In any case, grow.
I carry within me a sea of memories, from the goal of the debut in Serie A (in a poor reality but full of values, passion and attachment), up to the turfs of Formello, to the friendlies at the Olympic stadium colored with the colors of the sky.
Then the relegations, the promotions, the injuries, steep descents and historic but tiring climbs.
It’s been a beautiful journey, my Lazio, we started from so far away to get here. I loved you and I hated you as only happens in the greatest love stories, and now that the time has come to say goodbye, I want to do it with a smile, because…
I can’t have you, but since I love you, I can be yours.
Forever
Fly high
