Lazio have officially onboarded Niccolò Rovella from Juventus, but they might not stop there in the midfield and have Matteo Guendozi and Mats Wieffer in their crosshairs next. They’ll bring in another option, especially should they sell Toma Basic.
According to Alfredo Pedullà, the Frenchman intrigues them most. He has starred for Olympique Marseille in the past two years. He has €20/25M valuation and two years on his contract. He’s versatile and would be able to play in multiple positions. The 24-year-old has logged 10 goals and 19 assists in 101 matches with the Ligue 1 outfit.
Lazio have also been linked to Antonin Barak on top of Guendozi and Wieffer, but there are no confirmations about their interest. Fiorentina would like to keep him, although they signed Abdelhamid Sabiri and Gino Infantino in the same role.
It could be easier for the Biancocelesti to come to terms with Feyenoord rather than with OM since they want €12/15M to sell their staple. As for Basic, he’s on Udinese’s radar and has a pair of suitors abroad. Verona also touched base to inquire, Gianluca Di Marzio reports.
Our Take on Lazio, Guendozi, and Wieffer
They should absolutely sign another option, and they lack a bit of physicality. The rumored targets would fit the bill. Having snapped up two fairly established player, they can take the prospect route in this case.
