Lazio have officially revealed their UEFA squad list for the upcoming Europa League matches. The Biancocelesti, who finished top of the “single group” stage with an impressive record of 6 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss, are now preparing for the knockout rounds.
Manager Marco Baroni’s side is awaiting the results of the playoffs to determine their round of 16 opponent. Lazio could face either the winner of Porto vs Roma or Ferencvaros vs Viktoria Plzen.
Key Changes in the Squad
The most notable change in the squad list is the inclusion of Elseid Hysaj, who replaces Luca Pellegrini. This decision comes as a surprise to many, given Pellegrini’s performances earlier in the season.
Notable Omissions
Interestingly, Lazio’s three new signings – Belahyane, Arijon Ibrahimovic, and Provstgaard – have not been included in the Europa League squad. This suggests that Baroni is opting for continuity and relying on the players who secured the team’s position in the group stage.
Full Squad List
Goalkeepers: Provedel, Mandas, Furlanetto
Defenders: Gigot, Patric, Romagnoli, Gila, Lazzari, Marusic, Hysaj, Tavares
Midfielders: Vecino, Rovella, Guendouzi, Dele-Bashiru
Forwards: Pedro, Zaccagni, Castellanos, Isaksen, Dia, Tchaouna, Noslin
