Lazio star Ciro Immobile scored 33% of the Biancocelesti’s total goals this season, showing their dependence on the Italian striker.

The 31-year-old Immobile netted 20 times this season, a third of Lazio’s 61 season total goals. The Italian forward was in strong form throughout the majority of the season, only suffering an eight-game goal drought from mid-February to mid-April.

Contracted to the Biancocelesti until 2025, Immobile will remain the star of the team next season, whether or not Simone Inzaghi is on the bench.
