Mandas is Lazio’s second-choice keeper but has been starting between the sticks over the last few weeks to replace the injured Ivan Provedel.

Mandas joined Lazio from OFI Crete for just €1m last summer, and his contract at the Stadio Olimpico runs out in June 2028. However, according to the report, Lazio is preparing to meet his agents to discuss a one-year extension.

Lazio believe Mandas has the potential to become a regular starter in the future, but it is still unclear whether he can permanently replace Provedel starting from next season.
