🤬 Lotito (Lazio) on Raspadori snubbing him: But who is he, Maradona? | OneFootball

The possible departure of Giacomo Raspadori from Atlético de Madrid has sparked a war in the capital of Italy.

Roma and Lazio have both shown interest in the striker, but the 'azzurro' is torn between staying at Atleti or moving to Roma.

What is clear is that he has rejected Lazio, as confirmed by the 'biancoceleste' president himself in a historic outburst.

After celebrating Lazio's 126th anniversary, Claudio Lotito, the club president, spoke to the media and the conversation went as follows:

The president: "Names are put forward and the club goes after the profiles it deems suitable to buy. And what happens then? We go after two players who didn't want to come to Lazio. They were contacted and said, 'No thanks, I'm not interested.' So, what am I supposed to do?"

One of the journalists: "Are you talking about Raspadori?"

Lotito's response: "That's the problem, but who is Raspadori? Is he Maradona or something?"
