Lazio are looking to add depth to their backline for the 2016/17 season.
Cristian Ansaldi was a player that flew under the radar for most of his career. He left New Boys in his homeland of Argentina in 2008 and spent five years at Rubin Kazan until moving to Zenit St. Petersburg in 2014, then loaned to Atletico Madrid for a season, then ended up in Genoa where he’s found his niche.
Now, Lazio is in full rebuilding mode and is looking for a solid leftback for the next campaign. Inter dropped out of the race yesterday due to Genoa’s asking price of €8 million, but Lotito and Lazio are undeterred and moving forward.
According to Il Tempo, Lazio are in the lead over Milan and Roma for Ansaldi and perhaps another highly sought after target in Argentina, Gustavo Gomez (22 years old).
Ansaldi last year played in 25 games for Genoa, but contributed a lot in terms of counterattacks and crosses.
