Lazio president Claudio Lotito has again stated Luis Alberto will not be granted a free transfer.

The veteran attacker has declared he wants to leave this summer.

Lotito said: "Rescinding the contract is impossible.

“He scored a goal yesterday, played well and showed how much he cares about Lazio, so perhaps what he said could've been misinterpreted."

On Ciro Immobile, he added: “I have not opened any door, nor kicked anyone out of it, all these players have contracts. It is a two-way street with players, I cannot just nail them down and tell them they can't go anywhere.

“Besides, there have been no offers, so why should I start panicking before anything has happened?"
