Manuel Lazzari has gone from being on the transfer list to being a key figure for Maurizio Sarri in Rome.
The 28-year-old Italian full back was one of the best on the pitch in the Biancocelesti’s 2-1 win over Sassuolo on the weekend, something that seemed inconceivable three months ago, when a departure seemed all but certain.

Sarri has found a good balance in defence, deploying Lazzari on the right and Adam Marusic on the left, and he wants this pair to be confirmed ahead of the summer.
The 28-year-old Lazzari, who is contracted to Lazio until 2024, has made 32 appearances across all competitions so far this season, for a total of 1526 minutes. In that time, he’s scored three goals and provided one assist.
