Sarri's Ongoing Bond With Lazio Fans: Receives New Historic Lazio Shirt As Token Of Fans' Fondness
His departure was stormy following his resignation, yet for many Lazio supporters, Maurizio Sarri will forever hold a special place in their hearts. The combination of Maurizio Sarri and Lazio brought numerous successes: a second-place finish in the league, reaching the Champions League round of 16, defeating Bayern Munich, memorable derby victories, and other notable achievements.
Their paths diverged on March 12 when Sarri resigned as coach, but the connection between Sarri and Lazio's fanbase remains strong. In a touching gesture, some fans presented Sarri with a historic Lazio shirt from the 1973-74 championship season, marking the 50th anniversary of Maestrelli's team's triumph.
Sarri, who has always expressed admiration and affection for the legendary figure Tommaso Maestrelli, was deeply moved by this gesture, acknowledging the significance of the shirt representing a legendary moment in Italian football history. "Laziality invades you," Sarri remarked in Monza, expressing his fondness for Lazio's colors. Despite just over a year passing since his tenure, that sentiment continues to resonate strongly.
