Lazio are unsure whether to sign Napoli’s Elseid Hysaj or River Plate’s Fabrizio Angileri this summer.

As reported by Italian newspaper Il Messaggero (via LazioNews24) earlier today, the Biancocelesti’s aim now is to reinforce the full-back position in the squad, with both Hysaj and Angileri being identified as their top options.

The Roman club are currently undecided between the two, although they could both be signed should Manuel Lazzari, Adam Marusic and Mohamed Fares all leave this summer.

The 27-year-old Angileri, who is contracted to River Plate until 2023, is a strong part of the Argentinian squad, being part of the team that won the Recopa Sudamericana and the Copa Argentina.

This season, Angileri has scored three goals and provided six assists in 15 appearances across all competitions.

Hysaj has been heavily linked with the Biancocelesti since Sarri’s appointment earlier this month, but a deal has still not been finalised yet, suggesting further developments to come.
