Lazio are planning an award ceremony for talisman striker Ciro Immobile following his record-matching goal against Atalanta.
As reported baby Italian newspaper Corriere dello Sport (via LazioNews24) earlier today, the 31-year-old Italian striker scored his 159th goal for the Biancocelesti in the 2-2 draw against Atalanta on Saturday, a goal that saw him tie Silvio Piola’s all-time club top scorer record.

This ceremony could even be held on Sunday ahead of the match against Salernitana, a game that could see Immobile score his record-breaking 160th goal for the club.
The 31-year-old Italian striker is also thinking about celebrating with his teammates like he did when he won the European Golden Boot when he gave everyone a shrine containing a special jersey with a little message attached.
