Lazio finally managed to return to winning ways on Sunday, securing a 2-0 win over Lecce. It has been another disappointing campaign for the Roman club, who finished in 12th last season and are currently sitting in bottom half of the Serie A table this term, despite harbouring aspirations of European football.

Some have called for the head of coach Delio Rossi but president Claudio Lotito appears to be satisfied with work of the ex-Atalanta coach, whose contract expires in June.

"We have shown with our actions that we want to continue with him and he has said that he wants to stay,” revealed Lotito to Radio Gol. “Rossi would be violating federal rules by speaking to another club.

"For me he has [always] been the right choice. The [poor] results are due to a number of different factors."

Lazio host Bologna this coming weekend, hopeful of putting together consecutive wins. Meanwhile, Siena boss Marco Giampaolo has been linked with the Biancocelesti hot-seat in the media.
