Sarri wants to reunite with Loftus-Cheek after succesful Chelsea spell

The English midfielder played under Sarri at Chelsea during the 2018-19 season, scoring 10 goals in 40 appearances and helping the team win the Europa League.

Sarri wants to reunite with Loftus-Cheek at Lazio

Sarri is a long-time admirer of Loftus-Cheek and already wanted to bring him to the Olimpico during his first spell at the club.

The Tuscan tactician has now returned to Lazio and is eager to make a new attempt for the ex-Chelsea midfielder.

Ricci not among Lazio’s targets

Football Italia transfer expert Pedullà adds on Caught Offside that Lazio are not a genuine contender for Samuele Ricci.

The Torino midfielder is not currently among the Biancocelesti’s targets, despite reports from other media outlets.

On the other hand, the Italy international is being pursued by Milan, but the Rossoneri appear to have prioritised Ardon Jashari, making a €28m bid for the 22-year-old, who is under contract with Club Brugge.
