Ex-Sunderland boss Di Canio slams Lazio president Lotito

Paolo Di Canio has blasted Claudio Lotito saying he would never work with the Lazio president.

The former Swindon Town and Sunderland manager is being linked with the job at the Roman club after it was announced that Vladimir Petkovic would take the Switzerland role after next year's World Cup.

But ex-Biancocelesti forward Di Canio insists he isn't even considering the position at the Stadio Olimpico because of Lotito's presence.

"Would I coach Lazio? With Lotito [in charge], not on my life," Di Canio told Sky Sport Italia.

"I don't like him and he doesn't like me. Not that it's a secret.

"My future? Italy, England, even elsewhere, we'll see."
