Calciomercato Lazio, due club di Premier sui centrocampisti biancocelesti
Guendouzi and Rovella make up the perfect pair for the biancoceleste midfield: both with at least 40 appearances this year, when they are at the top they form an irresistible duet, complementing each other, running for the whole team and recovering ball after ball. Baroni is asking for the last effort from both of them, hoping to see them recharged in the Empoli trip and needing to have them at full strength for the last sprint of the season. Lazio is asking both of them for Champions League football, which could also be the determining factor in being able to keep them at the Roman club. In January, the first sirens had already arrived for both of them: first for Rovella, with Emery’s Aston Villa hot on the Italian’s trail, followed later by Newcastle, which instead was thunderstruck by the ductility of Frenchman Guendouzi.
Rovella e Guendouzi: gli scenari per il mercato
The identikit of the two midfielders is undoubtedly suited to the characteristics of the Premier League: running, intensity and dual propensity for both phases of the game. For a year they have been the midfielders who have run the most in Lazio, sharing several times the first and second place in the table for who covers the field the most. This season, not counting national teams, they have 44 games (Guendouzi) and 40 (Rovella) in their legs, which is why they are finding it harder to be as overflowing as they usually are in the last few outings of the season. Lotito and Fabiani know that they may have in their hands two top pieces of the upcoming soccer market, and after resisting offers in January, without qualification for next year’s Champions League it could become a near-impossible mission to retain them. For Frenchman Guendouzi, 13 million plus 5 million in bonuses were spent, Rovella on the other hand will be redeemed in June for about 17 million: both have seen their value rise, with Lotito valuing both no less than 30 million.
Le statistiche della stagione dei mediani biancocelesti
Guendouzi and Rovella have been record-breaking machines this year: the Frenchman is Lazio’s most-used player, with 44 games and 3786′ he ranks on the podium of players with the most minutes, behind only Milan’s Reijnders and Atalanta’s De Roon. Rovella, on the other hand, has recorded 3 assists this season and ranks among the top three midfielders in Serie A for balls recovered in attack (69). For Baroni’s game, the two midfielders are crucial, and to aim for the Champions League, their contribution will be crucial.
