Pellegrini: I was very close to leaving the team

Italy’s Roma midfielder Lorenzo Pellegrini shared his thoughts on the victory (1:0) against Lazio. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

He scored the only goal in the fifth round of the national championship. During the summer transfer window, there were reports that Pellegrini might leave the team.

From May to August, he was injured. “Life cannot be predicted in advance.

No one knows what will happen in the future. I was close to leaving, got injured, then returned and scored the winning goal in the derby,” the player said.

“Now I want to score a goal in the south stand and celebrate with the fans. To be honest, it doesn’t matter where the goal is scored.

Whether it’s the south, north, or side stands, as long as the net goes in,” Pellegrini’s words were quoted by DAZN. After this match, Roma is in fourth place in the tournament table with 9 points.

Lazio is in fourteenth place with 3 points.
