Lazio are open to strengthening their frontline in the January transfer window and have reportedly contacted the entourage of Antonio Candreva.

The Biancocelesti cannot count on talismanic striker Ciro Immobile for the next four to five weeks, limiting Maurizio Sarri’s options upfront. Felipe Anderson will likely be deployed as a false nine, leaving a gap on the right side of the pitch.

Lazio are not a club who spend heavily in the winter transfer market and are not expected to sign a replacement centre forward, so the team are now looking around for exciting opportunities before things kick off next week.

As reported by La Lazio Siamo Noi, Lazio have contacted Candreva’s agent to start exploring a possible low-cost move in the winter transfer window, interested in bringing back the veteran winger.

The 36-year-old has just six months left on his contract with Salernitana and could leave for a low fee, possibly even a free transfer.

This season, Candreva has scored five goals and provided four assists in 18 appearances across Serie A and the Coppa Italia.
