Football, Tapiro d'oro to De Rossi: ‘Me at Lazio? They'll never ask me’

Milan, Dec 30 (LaPresse) – Tonight on Striscia la notizia (Canale 5, 8.35pm) Valerio Staffelli will present Daniele De Rossi, who is angry about a year that ended badly with his dismissal from the Roma bench, with a golden tapiro with a good luck horn. Asked by the Striscia reporter if he, an old Giallorossi flag bearer, had any clashes with the team's new senators, De Rossi replied: ‘The players were the same even in January 2024, when they called me… In any case, I will always thank the American owners who allowed me to coach my favourite team,’ he said. Then, after a joke about Roma's complicated moment ('And you give the Tapiro to me? I've been out for months, I don't think I'm the right recipient…. '), pressed by the Striscia correspondent on the possibility of seeing him one day on the Lazio bench, De Rossi put himself back in the shoes of a Roma fan: ’They won't ask me, they're doing great. That's why I think I need two horns this year…’ For the coach it is the second Tapiro d'oro of his career. The full report will be broadcast this evening on Striscia la notizia (Channel 5, 20:35).
