Claudio Lotito criticised by Lazio fans as Reggina coaching talks advance

Lazio supporter and commentator Stefano Mattei urged Italian politics to intervene in the club’s management, accusing president Claudio Lotito of using Lazio’s finances to benefit his own companies and calling for a decision between continuing as president or pursuing a political career. Mattei highlighted that the club pays roughly €10 million a year to Lotito’s firms, totaling close to €200 million.

In parallel, reports indicate that Lotito may meet with former lower‑division coach Ciro Ginestra regarding the vacant Reggina head‑coach position, with additional candidates such as Cristiano Lucarelli and Mimmo Toscano mentioned. The discussions are part of Lotito’s broader involvement in Italian football administration beyond Lazio.
