Lazio midfield playmaker Hernanes insists he is happy at the club, but claims the cold temperatures in Rome at this time of year have taken him by surprise.
The 25-year-old Brazil international has proven to be a revelation since his arrival from Sao Paulo in the summer, inspiring Lazio to second place in Serie A.
"As soon as I finish training I go back to my family," Hernanes told globoesporte.com.
"We are at home and play with the kids also because the cold has arrived in Rome. It's 8 or 9 degrees."
