Lazio have started to consider a move for Olympique Marseille’s Matteo Guendouzi as they look to bolster their midfield.

The Biancocelesti are prepared to make a few more changes to their midfield department, possibly selling Marcos Antonio to PAOK and Toma Basic, who has attracted attention from Hellas Verona.

Lazio have opened talks with Udinese for Lazar Samardzic and have learnt that a deal would cost around €18 million plus Basic, leading to reflections in Rome. Personal terms may also be difficult to reach, something Inter discovered recently.

As reported by Alfredo Pedulla, Lazio have also started to consider a move for Guendouzi, who is considered a perfect fit for Maurizio Sarri’s system in the Italian capital.

Marseille are open to selling the 24-year-old French midfielder, who has two years left on his contract, and value him at around €18-20 million including add-ons.

Last season, Guendouzi scored five goals and provided five assists in 43 appearances across all competitions, seeing 2919 minutes of action.
