Lazio have made an official announcement declaring that the club has not been purchased by Russian buyers.
 

Lazio totally denounces the false rumours spread by the press, newspapers, radio and television, relating to the alleged negotiations for the sale of the club, prospective interested parties and entrepreneurial groups.
 

This news is totally unfounded and has caused an oscillation on the stock-market in addition to creating uncertainty about the future of the club, at a time when we are planning for the new season.
 

For the disclosure of this news, without any substantial information, we have instructed our legal team to commence proceedings in both civil and criminal courts against all actions aimed at the protection of the company and its shareholders, and repression of any offence of informative market rigging and for punishment against the perpetrators.
