Lazio are on the verge of securing a deal for teenage midfielder Cristobal Munoz Lopez, known as Cristo Munoz, who will leave Barcelona on a free transfer.
The Biancocelesti are hard at work on a number of deals as the summer transfer market fast approaches, working to finalize deals for Hatayspor’s Fisayo Dele-Bashiru and Hellas Verona’s Tijjani Noslin.
Rumours have also linked Lazio with a move for controversial winger Mason Greenwood, who is being exiled from Manchester United this summer, but his lofty price tag makes a deal extremely unlikely. Other transfer targets include Gent left-back Archie Brown, Hammarby winger Viktor Djukanovic and Feyenoord midfielder Calvin Stengs.
As reported by Alfredo Pedulla, Lazio are on the cusp of signing Barcelona midfielder Cristo Munoz on a free transfer, ready to pick up another talented teenager.
The 19-year-old midfielder is a product of the club’s youth system but will not sign a new contract, making him a free agent at the end of this month. Born in Almeria, he has been with the Blaugrana since 2017. He signed his first professional contract in 2021.
