President Claudio Lotito stopped all contract renewal talks earlier this season due to the poor performances but has now restarted things following the team’s upswing in form.
Luiz Felipe currently earns €650,000 net per season at Lazio and this will increase in his new deal. Exploratory talks with his entourage have already started and will heat up over the coming days and weeks.
