Milinkovic does not renew and could leave, Luis Alberto’s future is also uncertain. And Marcos Antonio was no match for Leiva. Schouten and Boloca are also evaluated
The midfield is the Lazio department most focused on transfer market operations. Not only for the fate of Sergej Milinkovic, directed towards departure due to the contract expiring in a year with no intention of renewal by the Serbian. Furthermore, the possibility of permanence of Luis Alberto, who would like to re-discuss his contract until 2025, if only in terms of salary, needs to be verified. But Maurizio Sarri is also interested in solving the needs that have arisen this season in the play role. The arrival of Marcos Antonio could not make up for the departure of Leiva a year ago. The Brazilian ex Shakhtar accused tactical difficulties of insertion. So the coach adapted Cataldi in the middle of the median. A solution validated by the pitch even if the Roman midfielder showed limitations in keeping distance.

Therefore, options are being evaluated to enhance the role also in view of the Champions League season. With a reinforcement that can support or alternate with Cataldi. In practice, a holder-bis. At the top of Sarri’s list is Lucas Torreira who moved to Galatasaray from Arsenal last summer after the season on loan at Fiorentina. The 27-year-old Uruguayan with Italian backgrounds also with Sampdoria and Pescara had already been indicated by Sarri twelve months ago. Now we will try concretely to get Torreira to Formello. An operation between 12 and 15 million euros. Among the point guards particularly appreciated by Sarri is Nicolò Rovella, 21, protagonist of a brilliant season on loan at Monza and now returning to Juventus. Therefore, as an alternative, the lead for Jerdy Schouten, the 26-year-old Dutchman, who is playing his fourth season with the Bologna shirt, is also being followed. And among the names that Sarri has recently followed, there is also Daniel Boloca, the 24-year-old Italian-Romanian, who stood out in Frosinone’s ride towards Serie A. His qualities as a complete midfielder capable of still being able to grow him have led to the sights of Lazio.
