Inter Milan Could Launch Late-Summer Onslaught for Lazio Star | OneFootball

Inter Milan are still interested in the services of Lazio midfielder Nicolo Rovella who has been on their wishlist for quite some time.

The Background

The 23-year-old has recently completed a permanent transfer from Juventus to the Italian capital side after spending the last two seasons on loan. Nevertheless, the Italy international had long declared his eternal love for Lazio, expressing his desire to stay at the club ‘forever’. And yet, Inter have been keeping close tabs on the player.

Earlier this summer, Rovella was identified as the Nerazzurri’s ideal candidate to replace Hakan Calhanoglu who was heavily linked with a move to Galatasaray. Although the storm has now calmed, the future of the Turkiye international remains unclear.

Therefore, Il Messaggero leaves the door open for a potential onslaught on the Lazio star in the final days of the summer transfer session. The report believes that this could cause some unrest at Formello, even though the Aquile and Rovella have every desire to prolong their collaboration.

Lazio Keen to Keep Rovella

As the source explains, the Lazio directors have recently held a meeting with Rovella’s agent, Beppe Riso, to discuss the midfielder’s future. The Biancocelesti reiterated their desire to keep the Genoa youth product at the club, while promising to renew his contract once the transfer ban is lifted in January.
