Calciomercato, i primi nomi di Fabiani per l’attacco della Lazio
We are still just over two months away from the official opening of the soccer market, but ds Fabiani is obviously always working to strengthen Lazio. The Biancocelesti have shown remarkable steps forward this year from the point of view of personnel, but something is still missing to make a decisive step and leap in quality, especially in the second lines. Fabiani and Lotito have been sounding out the strikers’ market for some time now, in order to figure out who to put alongside Castellanos, or even who can replace him in case of irrenounceable offers (of which, however, there is no trace to date).
Durosinmi del Viktoria Plzen
The first name, which is not new, is that of Rafio Durosinmi, a 2003 class striker Viktoria Plzen faced in the Europa League round of 16. He is a textured striker, with his 192 centimeters in height, whose name tag value is around 8-9 million euros. The player’s staff and ds Fabiani met and talked on the occasion of the double challenge: the road has been prepared, but there are also other names on the biancoceleste ds’s notebook.
Fotis Ioannidis del Panathinaikos
Another name already known is that of Fotis Ioannidis, a 25-year-old forward from Panathinaikos. The Biancocelesti had already tried to figure out the feasibility of the operation months ago, as had also Bologna last summer, when the Greeks’ demand, however, was 30 million euros. Last season, in fact, Ioannidis had a 23-goal haul in 44 seasonal games. This year the price has come down, in light of a lower performance (11 goals in 40 games, though that’s an impressive 9 in 4 conference games), probably due to the backlash for not being sold. Today, the price would be around 18 million, a figure that is certainly more affordable: Fabiani is thinking about it and keeping a close eye on the situation. If the Greek club would let him leave at a reasonable price, Lazio would be a real opportunity, especially in case of Champions League entry.
E le uscite?
Before putting in new graft, Lazio will have to think about exits. The first name on the list would seem to be Tchaouna, after a certainly not memorable season. PSV had thought of him in January, and he may still be a viable route. Another name potentially on the list of departures could be Noslin, although as of today it would seem really difficult to sell him without making a capital loss.
