ROME – Formello stage of lightning summit. At the table Lotito, Fabiani and Gianluca Nani, group technical director of Udinese. The meeting for Samardzic scheduled yesterday afternoon was postponed by a few hours due to motorway traffic, the version of events. It started late, it was the first and It wasn’t comforting, more comparisons are needed. The negotiation started and highlighted the wide known distances. Udinese is asking for between 20 and 25 million for the Serbian with bonuses. Lotito starts lower, offers around 15 million plus bonuses. There has been talk of counterparts, they are proposed by Lazio: Chancellors, Basic or Akpa-Akpro. By inserting them, Lotito would like to lower the cash. As in any soap opera negotiation, time is needed and more money is needed. Cancellieri may be of interest, Basic less so, Akpa wants to return to Monza. Udinese aims to sell Samardzic after the failed transfer to Inter and the risk of relegation averted. In Italy, until yesterday, there were no additions from other clubs. They can come from abroad, there are rumors about Mourinho’s Fenerbahçe. He can make an impact.
Lotito tries to attack Samardzic
Lotito is very keen on the paternity of Samardzic’s coup and was present at yesterday’s meeting. We have known Nani for a long time, he will remember when the manager was in the running to join Formello or when they negotiated the sale of Behrami to West Ham (Nani was the director). Article 17 was avoided. They found themselves face to face. The accounts must always be done with the Pozzo family, It’s not easy to deal with, prices remain high. But the Samardzic case may be different, the Friulian club needs to sell some jewels. It’s the right summer to sell the Serbian. In August 2023 Inter had signed him on a costly loan of 4.5 million (amount covered with the transfer of Fabbian to Udinese) plus the obligation to buy set at 16 million and another 2 in bonuses. Udinese starts from this base. Samardzic had landed in Milan and had undergone medical examinations. Then the commission case broke out, involving the player’s father Mladen against the intermediary of the deal. The Lotito test awaits him, who first has to get Udinese’s yes. Hoping the field doesn’t become mined. Samardzic rejected Barcelona at 16 and Milan at 17. He is no stranger to sensational decisions. At 22, however, the time for crucial decisions has arrived. Lazio can allow him to make the leap, for Lazio he can be a top reinforcement: “I feel like an attacking midfielder, but I’m also growing as a playmaker and midfielder,” the Serbian said recently. This year he has adapted to multiple roles. For Baroni he would be a quality wildcard.
Lazio plays on multiple tables
Lotito launched himself at Samardzic after launching himself up Greenwood, is on the hunt for a shot. It opens, it doesn’t close. In recent weeks, plots and negotiations have been intertwined. There have been operations actually set up and theaters created to try to lower prices. Today they are discussed Samardzic And NoslinYesterday Stengs And Dia. For the former, there was no agreement on the exchange with Isaksen and an adjustment in favor of the Biancocelesti. Isaksen is 2 years younger than Stengs and the transfer abroad still created imbalances in relation to the Growth Decree used when it was adopted. Dia was seduced and abandoned, agreements with agents and Salernitana were frozen. Poker tablesthe transfer tables of Lazio.
