Real Sociedad’s Januzaj Is Lazio’s Top Alternative to Brandt & Callejon

Real Sociedad winger Adnan Januzaj is still a possibility for Lazio, should they fail to sign Julian Brandt or Jose Callejon.

As reported by Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport (via LazioNews24) earlier today, the Biancocelesti are looking to provide more reinforcements for coach Maurizio Sarri this summer, wanting to acquire another new forward or attacking midfielder.

The 26-year-old Januzaj is one of Lazio’s top options should Borussia Dortmund’s Brandt or Fiorentina’s Callejon not sign for the club this transfer window.

Januzaj’s contract expires with the Spanish side next year in 2022 and so far a renewal doesn’t look close, which would help the Roman club in negotiations.

Developments are expected in the coming weeks, as Januzaj is only an alternative option for now and not the top choice.

The Belgian winger made 27 La Liga appearances last season, for a total of 1010 minutes. In that time, he scored four goals and provided four assists.
