The team needs more forwards. Sarri turns to his ‘old friend’. Lazio wants Lorenzo Insigne

Lazio want an additional winger, and Sarri is turning to his old ace, he wants Lorenzo Insigne

“The summit between Sporting director Fabiani and Sarri in which the transfer-market has been discused has brought an interesting conclusion. The plan is promising as Lazio need new wingers. The temptation to intervene in the transfer market will be even higher if the ‘Biancocelesti’ manage to secure a spot in the Champions League round of 16.

Lazio, considering Insigne for January

When discussing tempting offers, the pair referred to the attack. The idea of adding an extra winger didn’t fade since January 1, when Lotito tried to sign Greenwood from Manchester United. Lazio need to strengthen their attack which has been the main problem of the season with the team not scoring enough.

Concrete targets have not been revealed yet; but one option for sure is Lorenzo Insigne, who’s ready to say goodbye to MLS a year and a half after his arrival. His team Toronto finished in the last position in the league.

SALARY PROBLEMS

He earns around โ‚ฌ7.5 million and needs to evaluate pros and cons, which will be difficult for Lazio to match. Insigne recently changed agents and has joined You First, the agency that handles Luis Alberto’s interests.

He has long contemplated his return to Italy, which is why linking Insigne’s name to Serie A clubs is automatic. The temptations increase for Lazio with Sarri his old coach, and Immobile, a historical friend. But he knows that returning to Italy would mean accepting a more modest salary.
