The Brazilian has developed into a key member of the team since joining the Biancocelesti from Udinese in 2005.

The 28-year-old did not have the best of seasons last campaign though, with the backline conceding a whopping 51 goals in Serie A.

However Cribari is ready to pledge his future to the club, and is hoping to sign a new contract.

“I spoke to Delio Rossi before I went to Brazil and I told him that I would commit to Lazio without asking the moon or a guaranteed starting place,” he told Radio Radio TV.

“I really identify with this team and the shirt and I love being in Rome. I told the President that I would be happy to sign a renewal at once.

“I’m not looking for more money, that doesn’t come into it. My main objective is just to stay and eventually become captain.”

Cribari made 31 Serie A appearances last season.
