Lorenzo Insigne awaits the call to leave Lazio. All that remains to be formalized is the agreement between the striker and the Biancoceleste club. Salary of 1.4 million euros until the end of the season with an option for the next one at 2.4 million. An operation in the name of Maurizio Sarri. However, without the contours of nostalgia for the three seasons together with Napoli (and on Sunday the Azzurri will be at the Olimpico). The Commander has been considering the winger’s arrival in his new Lazio team since this summer, but everything was left on hold due to the blockade of the Lazio transfer market. Constraints now overcome. Thus, Insigne could be Lazio’s first reinforcement in January.

insigne-lazio, the details of the agreement

When his three-season contract with Toronto expired, the former Italian was released. Chasing the opportunity to return to play in Serie A. Contacts with Sarri have always been frequent. In August the basis of the agreement was laid after a meeting between his agent, Andrea D’Amico, and president Claudio Lotito in Cortina. The situation experienced by Lazio in recent months has slowed down the progress, but has also highlighted how the attacker had given priority to the Biancoceleste club given that in the meantime other requests have arrived to him to return to the Italian championship. Some further reflections were made by Lazio in consideration of the 34 years celebrated by Insigne in June. With him (a place will have to be freed up in the over 22 list) there will be 12 people over thirty in the workforce: an operation not in line with the plan to rejuvenate the team. But Sarri’s approval is required on everything. Insigne’s arrival becomes a sort of “duty” on the part of the club towards the coach who had to start his new course in the Biancoceleste without reinforcements. For the Commander, however, the former Napoli player is more functional than ever in the tactical project. Not only as an alternative to Zaccagni, on the left of the trident.

where he would play famously in Sarri’s Lazio team

In Sarri’s plans there is in fact the option of Insigne as a false 9, a role that could open up interesting horizons both for the player and for Lazio. A solution connected to possible key market developments. At the center of various strategies is Castellanos’ position. The Argentine could leave if an offer of 25 million actually arrives. Sum to be allocated in the first instance to purchase a midfielder: Atalanta’s Samardzic at the top of the list. So there would be an extra option at the center of the attack with Insigne. To be added to those of the relaunched Noslin and Dia (now in the Africa Cup of Nations). Except then the track for Lucca, to try to get on loan from Napoli. Insigne has trained practically alone in recent months. As soon as he is in Formello, he will be included in a personalized program to quickly raise the level of his athletic condition. “I am very fond of him, like a son, I spent wonderful years together,” Sarri recently said about Insigne, however dodging the terms of the operation to bring him to Lazio. An arrival that was about to materialize already in recent years. Also due to the winger’s strong bond with Ciro Immobile: they both exploded in Zeman’s Pescara. Especially in recent weeks, Insigne has often been “spotted” in Rome. For the Biancocelesti fans who have come across him, he is already a Lazio player. Waiting for the call from Formello to go and sign.
