Lazio have zeroed in on Hugo Lloris after selling Luis Maximiano to Almeria, but more work is needed to sign him. He’d join on a free from Tottenham. It’s more challenging to strike a deal on personal terms.
According to Alfredo Pedullà, the Biancocelesti are ready to satisfy his requests, even though he would earn much more than their starter Ivan Provedel. The two would compete, but perhaps further clarifications are needed on.
Lazio would finalize the agreement only if Lloris didn’t insist on being guaranteed to be the top option. On the other hand, it remains to be seen whether he’d sign off on the move if that were the case. The impasse shouldn’t last long.
Tottenham decided to move on from the 36-year-old by acquiring Guglielmo Vicario from Empoli. If the veteran didn’t join, the Biancocelesti would target Luigi Sepe. Salernitana cause him to further drop down the pecking order by putting Benoit Costil under contract.
Our Take on Lazio and Lloris
It has looked like an odd deal from the beginning considering his wages and the situation. There’s little reason for him to transfer unless he would play more. However, that would create unnecessary drama. More power to them if they did it anyway, but Claudio Lotito and co. should capitalize on the fact that they found a top-end goalie for very cheap and spend elsewhere.
