Former Lazio star Luis Jimenez is delighted seeing his old team thriving this season.
Under coach Maurizio Sarri, Lazio are on track to finish in second place in Serie A this season.
Jimenez told TMW: "I'm very pleased to see Lazio in the top half of the standings, I always carefully follow the teams I've played for. The second place of the biancocelesti doesn't surprise me much because they have been doing well for years and they try to improve each season."
Asked about playing for the current Lazio team, the Chilean said: "Difficult to answer. Lazio have many fantastic players with incredible quality, people who manage to make the difference in almost every match.
"Sarri's team also plays well collectively, let's not forget that to make a great championship you need all the departments to perform at the top, which is happening."
