Lazio and Naples, as expected, will not train again this week. The Roman club yesterday announced that the return to work was postponed 'sine die' due to the coronavirus emergency. Southerners, on the other hand, they had communicated during the past week first that the team would have trained this Monday, while on Friday the date was postponed to Wednesday.
A formal communication, which caused a lot of controversy on social networks and will soon be replaced by another. The Azzurri players already knew informally that on Wednesday they will not have to go to the sports city of Castel Volturno, an inevitable decision in the face of the coronavirus emergency in the transalpine country, which today it has 63,927 total infected and 6,077 deceased.
There were tensions over the matter in the past week as the owners of Lazio and Naples did intend to return to work soon. Andrea Agnelli attacked President Claudio Lotito during the Series A assembly on March 13 (“You think more about the classification than the health of your footballers“He said) and yesterday Massimo Cellino, president of Brescia, did the same in the‘ Corriere dello Sport ’:”If Lotito wants the scudetto, let him have it. I am already thinking about the next course, nothing else“
