Among the rumors arriving from the EA7 World Legends Padel Tour, currently taking place in Rome, there is also that of the Lazio striker Ciro Immobile. Here are the statements collected by TMW: “Are the Lazio fans very worried about Luis Alberto’s situation? I don’t know, talk to him. I saw him calm, he played yesterday. I don’t see any major worries.”
Can Tudor be the manager of the future? “I think so. When Sarri left, Lazio made a choice that I think was not temporary but also based on the future. We are following a path with Tudor and I believe that the club will move forward along this line.”
Did you speak with Inzaghi yesterday? “I complimented him on what he did with Inter and the quality he expressed in the middle of the pitch. We have a good relationship, we talk about everything, but we haven’t talked about my future at Inter.”
Recently Tudor said that the expectations of the environment are a little higher than the real value of the squad. Sarri had more or less expressed the same concept. Do you as captain agree? “The season we had last year went hand in hand with that of Napoli, which was extraordinary. We reaped all the fruits and deserved results on the pitch by taking advantage of all the opportunities that came before us. Obviously every season it’s different, probably the strongest, most equipped team that has spent the most on the market or has the players who earn the most does not always win. Sometimes there are fairy tales like that of Napoli, which despite the amount of wages was more of the northern teams took home the championship, we were carrying on the same thing before Covid with Inzaghi, there are opportunities that the championship sometimes presents you with: you have to be good at exploiting them and following the wave of positive results that lead you to the final victory. Over the years we have improved as a squad, yesterday on the bench were me, Pedro, Luis Alberto and Lazzari, all starters a short time ago. From that point of view we have improved, then obviously it is always the pitch who decides and who acts as judge”.
Do you see yourself well within the Tudor project? “The real Ciro yes, the calm one doesn’t have any big worries. We just need to finish the championship, go to retreat, reset, try to arrive at the retreat in top form to be able to start again and have another championship of the level that people expect” .
Is Saudi Arabia not on your mind? “It depends, is it for the World Cup? (laughs, ed.). Jokes aside, there have been some surveys from some teams, they probably have done it for thousands of players as it is an expanding market that wants to grow. But in concrete terms there is no ‘was never anything.”
