Lazio head coach Maurizio Sarri has commented on the absence of striker Ciro Immobile ahead of the match of the 11th round of the Italian championship against Atalanta.
"The absence of players who score a lot of goals is difficult. This happens with everyone who has such influential artists. If PSG didn't have Mbappe, they would be a bit worried, as Barcelona are without Lewandowski. We don't have another player with similar characteristics, but we will play to the strengths of Pedro or Felipe.
There are three players who have played more than Ciro. If I knew he was going to get hurt, I wouldn't have released him. On a muscular level, he didn't give any signals," Sarri was quoted as saying by Football Italia.
We will remind that the Romans lost Immobile due to injury until the end of 2022.
