Founded in 1900 and based in Rome, Italy’s capital, Lazio is a football team that plays in Serie A, the top flight of Italian professional football. Unlike many of their rivals in the league, they have spent most of their existence in Serie A. In addition to their success domestically, where they have won 2 Serie A titles, 7 Coppa Italia titles and 3 Supercoppa Italiana titles, they have also won the UEFA Super Cup and UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup once each.
Their longest-standing rivalry is with AS Roma, with which they share the 70,634-capacity Stadio Olimpico. Known as Derby Della Capitale, or Derby of the Capital City, it has been ongoing since 1929.
Among the home-grown talent, one notable transfer during Sergio Cragnotti’s reign as manager was Paul Gascoigne “Gazza” from Tottenham Hotspur. His transfer is notable because it increased interest in Serie A football in the UK during the 90s.
