Lazio captain Ciro Immobile discussed his close friendship with Lorenzo Pellegrini from the Biancocelesti’s sworn rival.

In an interview with Lazio TV, Immobile revealed how close he is to some of Roma’s players and how he is able to overcome the sporting differences in their day-to-day friendship.

“We are very good friends with Lorenzo. It may seem like an extraordinary thing but when we are together we talk about everything except Lazio and Roma,” said the Italian striker.

On his former Torino teammate, Andrea Belotti, Immobile commented, “With Belotti we shared the same room during the EURO which we ended up winning. We experienced it all together, there are some moments that cannot be forgotten.”
