Lazio have rekindled their interest in Empoli’s young midfielder Jacopo Fazzini, breathing new life into negotiations that had cooled in recent weeks. The Roman club have returned with renewed determination to secure the services of the talented 22-year-old.
Gianluca Di Marzio reports that after initial contacts in previous months, Lazio have intensified their efforts, convinced of the potential of the 2003-born player. This time, there appears to be a greater likelihood of reaching an agreement between all parties involved. Lazio’s management is working diligently to finalize the deal in the coming days.
Empoli, for their part, are not opposed to the transfer but is waiting for the right offer that adequately values the young talent who has risen through their youth academy. Fazzini, known for his vision on the field and versatility in midfield roles, would represent a significant reinforcement for Marco Baroni’s squad.
The structure of the deal is taking shape, with reports suggesting a two-year loan with an obligation to buy. The total value of the transfer is expected to be around €15 million, although Lazio is hoping to negotiate a slightly lower figure.
Lazio’s sporting director, Angelo Fabiani, has confirmed the club’s interest in Fazzini, indicating that negotiations are progressing. The player himself is said to have already reached an agreement on personal terms with Lazio, potentially signing a contract until 2029.
