Rossi optimistic of making Lazio

By Football Italia staff

Fiorentina striker Giuseppe Rossi has not ruled out the possibility of playing against Lazio this weekend.

The forward limped off in the Viola’s 2-1 win over Parma on Monday, but has claimed that he may be fit to face the capital club on Sunday, whilst also commenting on Fiorentina’s Europa League win over Dnipro yesterday.

“We played on a difficult pitch against a tough side,” he told reporters. “We played a good game.

“The three points will be very useful.

“Physically I feel good. I am looking after myself and am hoping to play against Lazio.

“I’ll know more after some tests tomorrow. I’m optimistic though.”
