Lazio have reportedly made contact with Sunderland to explore a possible move for teenage talent Jobe Bellingham.
The Biancocelesti are in a state of flux this summer, with old favourites like Ciro Immobile, Felipe Anderson and Luis Alberto all departing, prompting them to start setting up a new cycle under coach Marco Baroni.
Lazio have been heavily targeting Manchester United exile Mason Greenwood but have been unwilling to match the lofty requests, leaving things shrouded in doubt. Club president Claudio Lotito wants to find a burst of creativity fast and is already examining some other candidates.
Il Messaggero via TMW details how Lazio have started seriously considering a move for Jobe Bellingham should the talks for Mason Greenwood collapse and have been in contact with Sunderland to sound out a move.
The talented 18-year-old is valued at around €15m and is reportedly contracted to the club to June 2027. In the 2023-24 season, he netted seven goals and provided one assist across 45 Championship appearances.
