Marcello Lippi fuelled reports he’ll replace Stefano Pioli at Lazio, as he was in the stands for the 2-0 defeat to Juventus.

The former Italy manager sat only a few seats away from Biancocelesti President Claudio Lotito at the Stadio Olimpico.

He was asked about the rumours by lalaziosiamonoi.it correspondents.

“I don’t think it’s right to comment, out of respect for my colleagues.”

Marcello Lippi fuelled reports he’ll replace Stefano Pioli at Lazio, as he was in the stands for the 2-0 defeat to Juventus.

The former Italy manager sat only a few seats away from Biancocelesti President Claudio Lotito at the Stadio Olimpico.

He was asked about the rumours by lalaziosiamonoi.it correspondents.

“I don’t think it’s right to comment, out of respect for my colleagues.”

Lippi confessed he had been on the verge of joining Lazio in 2012, but had already given his word to Guangzhou Evergrande.

The fact remains Pioli is at risk after scraping one point from the last six Serie A rounds.

Fans either abandoned the Olimpico or jeered their own players and President during the 2-0 defeat to Juventus.

Captain Lucas Biglia was spotted in tears at the final whistle.
