Lazio Interest In Inter Milan Target Not Serious | OneFootball

Lazio are not serious in their interest in signing Genoa forward and Inter Milan target Albert Gudmundsson this summer.

This according to Italian broadcaster SportItalia, via FCInterNews. The broadcaster report that the Biancocelesti’s real big name target in attack is Manchester United’s Mason Greenwood.

Gudmundsson looks all but certain to be on the move this summer.

The Icelander’s form last season – he scored fourteen goals and assisted seven for Genoa – has attracted significant transfer interest.

The bulk of this is coming from within Serie A, although Premier League clubs are also sitting up and taking notice.

The Corriere note that Genoa already rejected a €25 million offer for Gudmundsson from Fiorentina in January.

The Ligurian club will aim to cash in for no less than €30 million if they sell the former AZ Alkmaar forward.

And in reality, Genoa will want much more.

With the interest and competition growing, the Grifone are eyeing up a big payday.

Lazio Not Serious About Rivalling Inter To Sign Albert Gudmundsson

The club most strongly linked with Gudmundsson this summer has been Inter.

Reportedly, the 26-year-old is something of a dream target in attack for the Nerazzurri. And Gudmundsson himself would be keen on the move.

But there are a couple factors that would make the move difficult.

Not just the price tag. Inter must also make room in their squad to sign Gudmundsson, most likely by selling Marko Arnautovic.

And then there are all of Juventus, Roma, and Napoli tracking the Icelander as well.

Lazio have also been linked with a move for Gudmundsson recently.

According to SportItalia, however, the capital club’s interest in signing the Icelandic international is not serious.

To date, Lazio have not made contact with Genoa to try and sign Gudmundsson.

The former AZ Alkmaar man would not be a particularly realistic target for the Biancocelesti.

Rather, SportItalia anticipate, Lazio believe that they could potentially beat Juventus to the signature of Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood, who spent last season on loan at Getafe.
