Lazio president Lotito knows fans want club to withdraw from Serie A

There's claims of Lazio being prepared to sit out the season after Monday's loss to Torino.

Lazio were furious with the officiating of ref Piero Giacomelli.

“I spoke with President [Claudio] Lotito, who told me how the fans have asked us to carry out acts of protest, and - as an extreme hypothesis - even to withdraw the team from the league," Arturo Diaconale explained on Radio 24.

“I ask that similar mistakes aren't made, because we want a fair league. I'm against conspiracy theories and I don't even like complaining, but let's say the truth.

“When incidents are repeated continuously one Sunday after the other, you can at least have the right to suspicion.

“VAR? That has nothing to do with it, there are always people behind the interpretation."
