Samardzic attracted the attention of Juventus and Napoli in the January transfer window but again stayed with Udinese, where he scored six goals and provided two assists across 34 Serie A appearances this term.

As reported by La Lazio Siamo Noi and Alfredo Pedulla, Lazio met with Udinese on the weekend to start discussing a move for Samardzic this summer and they’re now ready to offer around €15-16 million plus add-ons for the midfielder.

The Biancocelesti are considered the only Italian club in the race for his signature but he’s popular with clubs from abroad, including Fenerbahce.
