Lazio president Lotito warns Super Cup opponents Juventus

Lazio president Claudio Lotito has fired a warning at Super Cup opponents Juventus.

Lazio want to stage the event in Beijing, China.

"Juventus have to find a solution to their issues, because were meant to sign the contract today to play in Beijing," Lotito told lalaziosiamonoi.

"Juventus organised themselves a tour of the USA and maintain they cannot play in China, but that is not an objective impediment.

"Lazio are giving up a tour of South America and with it considerable income so we can prepare for the Super Cup.

"Juventus must respect the rules. We are within an association where everyone has to respect the rules. The contract signed with Beijing organisers has to be respected, or the Lega Serie A will lose credibility.

"I don't see that Juventus have much support within the Lega over this. The way I see it when you are within a community or association, you first have to consider the rules and then personal interests."
