The Luis Alberto case has not yet been buried in Lazio. On Saturday the Roman team beat Crotone before attacking Zenit in the Champions League. Inzaghi took advantage of the victory to try to calm the atmosphere of tension that has settled around Luis Alberto at the club, after the Spanish player criticized the club's investment in a private plane while money was still owed to the squad. The rudeness made Lotito, the president, very bad, and the club announced a fine for the Spanish player.
“In these years Luis Alberto has shown how important it is for us, on Saturday (against Crotone) has given a great response in the field“, Inzaghi affirmed in the press conference on the eve of the Champions League match against Zenit Saint Petersburg. The technician tried to calm some spirits that were still hot. And it is that the treatment that the Spanish midfielder is receiving has unleashed a war in the club and has found Peruzzi as the main defender of the footballer. The one who was a Lazial goalkeeper is the link between the club and the squad, he is the team manager, and he has lacked time to address the president and mediate in favor of Luis Alberto, even for that fine to be withdrawn.
The exchange of views, as La Gazzetta dello Sport and Messaggero explain today on their front page, has had an inverse effect, so much so that Peruzzi has threatened to resign and Lotito, with the approval of Tare, the sports director, would think to remove Luis Alberto from the team, even in January. It is surprising since the Spanish has been one of the capital players in the quality jump that the team has made and that has led them to return to play the Champions League. But neither are the departures of the always volcanic Lotito surprising, who would have felt unauthorized at the time of presenting his lavish investment. Meanwhile, Inter, Juventus and Everton have already looked around the corner to see what the situation of Spanish talent is.
