Lazio comms chief Arturo Diaconale has enjoyed a swipe at AS Roma and their president James Pallotta.
The American has come under fire for rejecting a takeover offer from the Friedkin Group in recent weeks.
Diaconale declared, “We want to prove that our club model is better than that of our cousins.
“Having a President who makes his presence known and is close to the team can make the difference."
He also congratulated Napoli on defeating Juventus in the Coppa Italia final.
“We are very happy for Napoli's victory, as Aurelio De Laurentiis has created a club model at Napoli that is similar to Lazio and one that other teams ought to be following.
“Hopefully, we too can celebrate tripping up Juventus in the Serie A title race, seeing as we already beat them twice this season."
