Napoli striker Giovanni Simeone has been offered to Lazio, but the club aren’t interested in progressing to a deal.

The Biancocelesti have already been hard at work in the summer transfer window, pulling off deals for Loum Tchaouna, Tijjani Noslin, Fisayo Dele-Bashiru, Cristo Munoz, Gabriele Artistico, Gaetano Castrovilli, and Nuno Tavares, trying to kickstart a new era under Marco Baroni.

In recent days, reports suggested that Lazio had been offered Simeone, who is looking for a way out of Napoli following the arrival of Antonio Conte. The Argentinian striker struggled for regular playing time last term and isn’t part of the new project in the Campania capital.

As reported by Alfredo Pedulla, Lazio are not interested in signing Simeone from Napoli this summer, wanting to place their trust in Valentin Castellanos following Ciro Immobile’s recent move to Besiktas. Noslin will be the second striker competing with him, and as a result, there would be no space for a starting position for the Argentine in the team; a similar situation that he is currently experiencing with the Partenopei.

In the meantime, the Biancocelesti are working hard to try and set up a deal with Sassuolo for Armand Lauriente, trying to close the €4-5m gap between the offer and the price tag.

  1. I would’ve liked him but with his recent injury and Taty + Noslin there truly is no room, and that surname makes me smile every time I hear it… Grande Cholo

  2. Hell no! A striker just as the position in the pitch, he doesn’t know how to score. Please, reject any proposal.
