"Yes, it's true, even when Gattuso was coach. But that was a strong Lazio team, on the same level as Milan: it was a choice made with the heart, also because it's hard to say no to such a big team. That's how I felt at the time."
"Great memories, even the Coppa Italia semi-final: they were always tough matches against a very strong team, but they were fun."
"Donnarumma or Ibra. In terms of personality and making their presence felt on the pitch, they were them."
Ciro Immobile, now 36 years old and nearing the end of his career, has revealed that AC Milan showed interest in signing him during his best years, including when Gattuso was coach. Despite the opportunity, Immobile chose to stay at Lazio, a team he felt was equally strong and competitive. He has faced Milan 23 times throughout his career, scoring eight goals and five assists, winning only four matches. Immobile recently moved from Bologna to Paris FC in January and reflects on his memorable encounters with Milan, including a Coppa Italia semi-final, while acknowledging that Donnarumma and Ibrahimović were the most impressive players he faced in red.
