Maurizio Sarri appears to be on his way to becoming the new manager for Lazio. Furthermore, it seems as though the Italian tactician has made a list of demands to shape the squad in his image. 

The former Juventus FC boss has asked for at least four signings to reshape Lazio with his 4-3-1-2, which will be a different look since the Rome-based club has carried out a 3-5-2 under former manager Simone Inzaghi.

According to Radiosei, Sarri wants two players that were with him during his tenure at Napoli, Elseid Hysaj and Nikola Maksimović, who can leave on a free transfer later this month when their contracts expire. 

The other two potential targets that Sarri wants are Nahitan Nández, currently at Cagliari Calcio, and Lucas Torreira, who’s returning to Arsenal FC after a loan stint with Atlético Madrid.

It will be interesting to see whether Lazio can comply and grab the players Sarri wishes as they head into this new era.
