Lazio face late competition from AC Milan as they look to complete the signing of Luca Pellegrini and Nicolò Rovella, a report claims.
According to Corriere dello Sport (via LazioNews24), an agreement between Lazio and Juventus was reached over both Pellegrini and Rovella in a double deal which is worth €21.5m.
The signatures have not yet arrived but if everything goes smoothly then Lazio will have a new left-back and central midfielder for Maurizio Sarri to work with, but there could be a late sting in the tale.
As per the report, Milan have made a late attempt to hijack the Rovella deal, while the Rossoneri also need a left-back and their interest in Pellegrini has been registered.
They could overtake the capital club in the race for both players but things do not seem in danger at present for Claudio Lotito’s side, though they will be hurrying to get things over the line.
