According to Calciomercato.com, Romagnoli is enthusiastic about the idea of joining the club he has supported since he was just a child and the possibility is becoming more and more concrete as Lazio chiefs Claudio Lotito and Igli Tare have been working for several weeks with his agent Mino Raiola to try and strike a deal.
The Biancoceleste’s offer to Romagnoli is €3.2m net per season plus bonuses for a five-year contract – which is therefore a total commitment of €16m net – and the Milan captain is ready to say yes.
Some details remain to be sorted relating to the commissions that Lazio will have to pay to Raiola, but things are proceeding at a fast pace towards closing. Milan’s most recent offer was at €2.8m per year and they have not raised it, instead understanding that they will say goodbye to Romagnoli in July after seven years of service.
