Simone Inzaghi is hoping for a fresh chance under new Lazio coach Davide Ballardini.

"I feel good," noted Simone. "Last year I broke my shoulder but before then I was nearly ready to play.

"Now I am ready to have a good season. There is plenty of competition but many games to play as well so I am hoping to earn my space.

"The fans always liked me. In the last ten years I have done a lot for this club but I have to admit I received a lot too."
