Amoruso signs for Lazio
Thursday 5 June, 2008

Experienced Reggina striker Nicola Amoruso has completed a transfer to Lazio, Amaranto President Lillo Foti has confirmed.

The 33-year-old’s goals played a vital role in keeping Reggina in Serie A last term, but he decided to bring the curtain down on his three-year spell at the Stadio Granillo.

The Calabrians were resigned to losing Amoruso, but it was still hard of Foti to let the former Juventus marksman leave.

“We have reached a financial agreement with Lazio and were are both satisfied with the deal,” Foti declared.

“Lazio have made a big swoop by signing Amoruso and they have given me the difficult task of replacing him.

“I had to let him go because he wanted to move to a big club like Lazio so that he can end his career there.”

Reggina must now find another dependable goal-getter this summer and are reportedly considering a loan bid for former hero Rolando Bianchi.
