Lazio is facing a difficult decision: to sign Mason Greenwood from Manchester United or Lazar Samardzic from Udinese. Both players are young and talented, with Greenwood potentially replacing Felipe Anderson on the wings and Samardzic being seen as a successor to Luis Alberto.
According to Italian journalist Alfredo Pedullà, Lazio will need to choose between the two players. While Greenwood may be in high demand from the Premier League and La Liga, Samardzic could be a more realistic option for the Biancocelesti. The potential fee for Samardzic is around €20 million, and despite interest from other clubs like Fenerbahce, the player has expressed a desire to stay in Italy.
In addition to their pursuit of Samardzic, Lazio is also looking to finalize deals for other players. The club must close a deal for Hellas Verona attacker Tijjani Noslin by June 30th and resume talks for Juan Cabal. They are also close to completing the signing of Fisayo Dele-Bashiru from Hatayspor, with negotiations reaching a critical stage. Lazio will need to move quickly to secure these potential transfers as the window draws to a close.
Lazio’s search for new talent continues as they look towards next season with renewed vigor. With both Greenwood and Samardzic on their radar, they have some tough decisions ahead of them. But whatever they choose, one thing is certain: they will continue to be a force in Italian football for years to come.
