His individual honours include four Serie A top-scorer awards and the European Golden Shoe after his extraordinary 36-goal league campaign in 2019/20.

European Champion With Italy

Immobile's international career also produced the biggest team honour of his career.

He was part of Roberto Mancini's Italy side that won Euro 2020, defeating England on penalties at Wembley.

Although his Italy career was often debated, his contribution to the European Championship-winning team remains a defining part of his legacy.

Lazio Will Remember Him Most

His eight-year spell in Rome transformed him into one of the club's modern greats, with his goals making him a central figure in one of the most successful periods of his career.

Why Immobile Has Called Time
