Lazio are in close contact with Serbian outfit Partizan Belgrade as they explore a deal for talented forward Samed Bazdar.

The Biancocelesti are ready to close out a cycle and sell club captain Ciro Immobile to Besiktas for around €3 million, prompting them to accelerate in their search for creativity and goals in the transfer market.

Lazio are planning to make up for Immobile’s sale by picking up a new winger or attacking midfielder, with the primary target appearing to be Manchester United exile Mason Greenwood, who is also wanted by Olympique Marseille.

As detailed by Alfredo Pedulla, Lazio are also in talks with Partizan as they look into a deal for Bazdar, who impressed in the 2023-24 season as a centre forward or attacking midfielder, scoring eight goals across 31 appearances.

The 20-year-old is contracted to the Serbian side until June 2026 and talks could deepen in the coming days, depending on the Biancocelesti’s other targets in the market.
