🔗 Share this article Matteo Cancellieri Demonstrates Glimpses of Brilliance in Positive Aspect for Unstable Lazio The feeling at Lazio's home ground was anything but joyful on Saturday afternoon. The Biancocelesti found themselves behind against Torino, an opponent that had let in 10 goals while netting just two in their most recent five league matches. Supporters from the Curva Nord were wrapping up their ongoing dissent in a continuous dispute with club owner Claudio Lotito. A Season Unraveling? Had their campaign coming unstitched, or was there ever a binding element maintaining its structure from the beginning? They reappointed Maurizio Sarri as head coach this summer, before he publicly stated that the club had not mentioned a ban on new signings they were facing for fiscal problems. Speculation that he might quit were without basis, but he acknowledged that Lotito had "misled" him. The Roman club became as messy during matches as behind the scenes, overcoming Verona 4-0 and Genoa 3-0 but falling short in the rest of their first five games, which included the capital clash. Throughout this period, it has been hard to ascertain if they're getting better or collapsing. The Youngster's Unforeseen Return At least one man remained positive amid the chaos. Matteo Cancellieri had not been expected to remain with Lazio during this campaign. He was on the previous campaign on loan at Parma and, during the summer break, his owning club were advocating for him to stay there temporarily. The transfer ban necessitated a reconsideration. They were unable to reduce their roster lacking backup options. He signed in the first place when Sarri was last in charge, then a 20-year-old graduate of Verona's academy. He recorded 20 league appearances for Lazio in that campaign, almost all of those as a substitute. The club's longtime sporting director, Igli Tare, who left following that term, later stated Sarri of "promising everyone Cancellieri had superstar potential only to bench him consistently." Discovering His Natural Fit Maybe Sarri was persistently working to work out the exact type of the player's talent. Originally described as an attacking winger when he joined, Cancellieri instead found himself the majority of that term as an ineffective backup to Ciro Immobile at No 9. In 63 appearances while playing for Empoli and Parma over the last two seasons, he scored seven times. Shoehorn
