Albert Gudmundsson has chosen the number 80 shirt for his new spell with Lazio and says he is ready to give everything to the Rome club.
The Iceland international, who has recently joined Lazio, confirmed the number he will wear while also making clear his attitude towards the next stage of his career. Gudmundsson said he would “give himself to Lazio without remainder” – a declaration that he intends to do everything he can for the club.
His choice of number 80 is the first detail to emerge about his role at Lazio since his arrival. The announcement provides the club’s supporters with an early connection to their new signing, who will now begin his time in Rome wearing that number.
Gudmundsson’s message was one of complete dedication. Rather than limiting his commitment to words, he said he was prepared to give himself fully to Lazio and contribute in every possible way. His comments underline the importance he places on making a strong impression at his new club.
The move represents the latest step in Gudmundsson’s career in Italian football. Before joining Lazio, he played for Genoa and Fiorentina, representing both clubs before making the switch to the Rome-based side.
His previous experience with Genoa and Fiorentina means he is already familiar with football in Italy. At Lazio, however, he will begin a new chapter and take on the number 80 shirt as he seeks to establish himself with his latest team.
For now, the main details surrounding Gudmundsson’s arrival are his selected squad number and his stated willingness to commit himself entirely to Lazio. The Icelandic player has made his intentions clear: he wants to do everything possible for the club and to give his full effort in its colours.
The number 80 will therefore become associated with Gudmundsson during his time at Lazio, while his promise of complete dedication sets the tone for his arrival. Having previously worn the colours of Genoa and Fiorentina, he is now focused on his future with the Rome club.
