Sporting CP talent Kiko Felix has emerged as a possible target for Lazio ahead of the summer transfer window.

The 19-year-old Portuguese winger will be leaving Sporting’s B team on a free transfer this summer, making him available to sign on a free transfer. He has shown potential with the Under-23 squad and a number of clubs are keeping a close eye on him.

As reported by Radiosei (via La Lazio Siamo Noi), Lazio sporting director Igli Tare has spotted Kiko Felix as a potential future star, believing the Sporting prospect may be the perfect player to sign in a deal similar to the one that brought Luka Romero to Rome last summer from RCD Mallorca.

The 19-year-old Kiko Felix made 18 appearances across all competitions this season for Sporting U-23, for a total of 909 minutes. In that time, he scored one goal and showed his talent, although it wasn’t enough to convince the Portuguese side to offer him a new deal.
