Lazio have submitted a new offer to Udinese for midfielder Lazar Samardzic, which was again rejected by the Friulian outfit.

The 22-year-old Serbian midfielder seems destined to leave the Bianconeri this summer after an interesting 12 months, which has seen him targeted by a long list of clubs including Inter, Juventus, Napoli and teams from abroad like West Ham.

Despite the widespread interest, Samardzic hasn’t managed to make the step up in his career yet, with some pointing to the influence and requests of his father-agent. Regardless, in recent weeks Lazio have decided to enter the fray.

As reported by Corriere dello Sport (via LazioNews24), Lazio submitted a new offer to Udinese for Samardzic, willing to pay €15 million plus Matteo Cancellieri in exchange, which was rejected by the club.

In the meantime, Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce are still seriously interested in the 22-year-old and could launch a new proposal soon, giving the Biancocelesti some tough competition.
