Alessio Romagnoli: I always hoped to play for Lazio


 Alessio Romagnoli is delighted with his move to Lazio.

The former AC Milan captain was presented to the local media on Wednesday.

Romagnoli said: "I always hoped for it, we've been talking about this opportunity for a long time. Both parties have always wanted it.

"I thank the sporting director and president for this opportunity, it has always been my dream and I was sure I would come here. My family supported me through everything, they were as happy as I was.

"I'm much better than I was, although still missing a little something. Sarri's game is more tactical, Pioli's was different, it was more one-on-one in large areas of the pitch. This game suits me more and I like it better.

"The team's goal is to qualify for the Champions League because we're strong, a good squad. I have always told Tare over the years that this is a strong team.

"For me it will be important to play more than last year. Despite having had several problems, I have to try to give my best and play as many games as possible. The main goal, I repeat, is as a team and that's to get to the Champions League."
