Romagnoli: ‘I’m a Lazio fan’

By Football Italia staff

Milan centre-back Alessio Romagnoli confirms “I’m a Lazio fan”, but aims to reach the Coppa Italia final tomorrow.

The Italian international played for Roma, but he’ll be facing his boyhood team at the Stadio Olimpico tomorrow.

“It’s always nice to face Lazio,” Romagnoli said in a Press conference.

“I’m a Lazio fan, and my faith has remained that way. It will be a nice emotion, we’ll be playing in the stadium where I went to see the Scudetto team with my dad, but we have to win.

“The Coppa Italia is a seasonal objective.”

Gennaro Gattuso has improved the Diavolo’s fortunes since replacing Gennaro Gattuso, and Romagnoli gave an insight into his methods.

“With Gattuso we work a lot on the defensive phase compared to what we did with Montella. He’s given us his grit and character, as a champion who has won everything.

“He’s very expert in that regard, he’s known Milan for many years.”
