Calciomercato Lazio: Sarri renews and asks for seven signings

With the renewal, waiting to be made official, the Commander has obtained greater involvement in the market choices, from which he expects a significant effort to strengthen the squad

Now there are also the signatures. Armored renewal of Maurizio Sarri with Lazio until 2025 waiting to be made official. With a salary of 3.5 million euros per season plus bonuses, mainly linked to the placing in the championship. In fact, the contract signed a year ago has been extended until 2023. A renewal which, however, becomes important on a programmatic level: a clear line is drawn for a cycle with the Commander. An agreement that only needed to be formalized in all its parts after the agreement to move forward had been reached between Sarri and Lotito in recent weeks. In fact, the president had already announced at the Christmas dinner his intention to renew the contract of the technician. It seemed like a breakthrough destined to happen quickly. Instead, the times have lengthened amidst the tensions of the January market and some too many uncertainties arising from the team which, however, ended the championship in fifth place, above all hitting the qualification in the Europa League.

MARKET PLAN

The renewal of Sarri also involved the request for greater involvement of the same technician in market choices. The puzzle about Milinkovic’s departure remains: Lazio asks for 80 million. Meanwhile, the contract expired, they greeted Leiva, Luiz Felipe and Strakosha. At least seven reinforcements are needed in Sarri’s project to be balanced with some sales. Marcos Antonio, Shakhtar’s player, is coming. The negotiations for Romagnoli, a candidate for the role of defense leader in view of the departure of Acerbi, must be relaunched. Among the posts, the focus is on Carnesecchi, fresh from promotion to Serie A with Cremonese, but owned by Atalanta. Patric’s renewal aside, a central is being evaluated: Casale del Verona and Chust of Real Madrid (after the loan to Cadiz), the goals on pole. As deputy real estate, Cabral could be confirmed, but the situation of Mertens is also followed after the uncertainties about his renewal with Naples.
