Lazio have bucked the trend by paying two months of wages in advance. ‘I did it to send a signal,’ said President Claudio Lotito.
The financial crisis has hit clubs all over the world and this week an agreement was reached allowing clubs to defer payment of wages.
The salaries for October, November and December 2020 can now be delayed from the previous deadline of February 16 2021 to May 31.

A report stated that only Napoli had paid their wages in full on time so far this season in Serie A.
However, Lazio then surprised by not only paying on time, but even sending out the February and March salaries early.
“I did it to send a signal,” President Lotito told news agency Ansa.
Meanwhile, the Corriere dello Sport claims Inter have already met with the squad to ask for permission to delay the payment of November and December wages until the end of May.
They only paid the outstanding July and August 2020 salaries with money provided on Thursday.
