Roma –
Lazio’s new recruit, Elseid Hysaj, was attacked by right-wing ultras. The reason, the Albanian midfielder was singing the song Bella Ciao.
A video of Hysaj singing Bella Ciao is circulating on social media. In the 22-second video, Hysaj looks like he is being teased by his colleagues, and chooses to sing the song.
According to RT, Hysaj, who was signed on a free transfer from Napoli, sang Bella Ciao, an Italian anti-fascist anthem. This made Lazio’s right-wing supporters furious.
According to a Calciomercato report, Hysaj was bullied on social media. Not only that, the 27-year-old reportedly also wants to be raided by Lazio’s right-wing ultras.
The right-wing ultras reportedly wanted to visit Hysaj at a restaurant. However, they turned to Auronzo Di Cadore, the team’s training complex. At the training complex, Hysaj and Lazio’s sporting director, Igli Tare, were intercepted.
The song Bella Ciao was used by Italian society to fight fascism in the 1922-1945 era. The song ignites the enthusiasm of the Italian workers against the atrocities of the fascist regime.
