Pinamonti appeared at a press conference after making his debut in the league against Genoa, where he came close to scoring. He spoke about his expectations for the move to Rome and what it means for his career: reaching double figures in goals, taking over the legacy left by Immobile, and the dream of wearing the Azzurri shirt.

“Lazio, how long I waited for you”
During the press conference dedicated to him, Pinamonti spoke about his feelings when joining Lazio: “I waited a long time before finally arriving here. Now I am really enjoying the first few days with the team, and I have adapted well. This is a club with a long history and great importance, so my choice was very clear from the beginning. Of course, I can feel the club’s trust in me, not only because I am the only center-forward. Trust is very important because it makes players feel responsible for giving something back.”
Immobile’s legacy and a turning point in life
On a personal level, Pinamonti did not hide that this is a major step forward: “This is a turning point in my career. I am 27 years old, and this is the moment when I need to understand which path to take. Joining after a great player like Immobile is also an inspiration. He made history for Lazio and Italian football, and that gives me more motivation and determination. I am an ambitious player, and scoring double-digit goals is my goal.”
