Lazio Star Ciro Immobile Wants to Shine Against AC Milan This Weekend

Lazio star Ciro Immobile wants to shine against AC Milan following his criticism surrounding his performances with the Azzurri.

As reported by Italian newspaper Corriere dello Sport (via LazioNews24) earlier today, the 31-year-old Italian striker has been widely criticised by both fans and the press alike following his lacklustre performances with the Italian national team recently.

His Lazio teammates Francesco Acerbi and Luis Alberto, as well as other fans and teammates, have come out to publicly defender the former Pescara man, but his focus is fully on the Rossoneri.
