Lazio Identify RB Leipzig Striker Andre Silva as Latest Target

Lazio have started keeping an eye on RB Leipzig striker Andre Silva as they search for a new centre forward.

The Biancocelesti are clearly in the market for a new striker to complement Ciro Immobile and have considered a number of possible options this summer.

Lazio are working on a deal for Santos forward Marcos Leonardo but things are progressing slowly, so the club are also keeping a few more targets in mind.

As reported by Gianluca Di Marzio, Lazio have started to seriously consider the idea of picking up RB Leipzig’s Andre Silva this summer, believing he could be a good alternative to Immobile.

Maurizio Sarri has already given the green light to a possible deal, which would likely cost around €15-18 million, but for now other targets are the main focus.

Last season, the 27-year-old Portuguese forward scored nine goals and provided nine assists in 44 appearances across all competitions.
