Lazio to wear Anne Frank on shirt and send fans to visit Auschwitz in bid to tackle anti-semitism

Nov 10, 2019

LAZIO's players will wear an image of Anne Frank on their shirts against Bologna in a bid to tackle anti-semitism.

The move comes after supporters left stickers showing Frank in a Roma shirt around the Stadio Olimpico after they faced Roma on Sunday.

President Claudio Lotito is keen to show the club is committed to fighting racism and anti-Semitism during Wednesday's clash.

Lazio will also organise an annual trip to the site of the Auschwitz concentration camp to educate fans about the Holocaust.

Lotito said: “Today, I can officially announce that Lazio will partake in a new initiative, organising an annual trip to Auschwitz for 200 Lazio fans to educate and make sure we don't forget certain episodes, so that these lads can know what it is we're talking about.
