Lazio are once again pursuing the services of Empoli midfielder Jacopo Fazzini, who can seamlessly slot into Maurizio Sarri’s tactical plans.
Lazio Set for Tactical Change Under Maurizio Sarri
The 66-year-old is reportedly one step away from finalizing his return to Formello. Therefore, the team is expected to move away from Marco Baroni’s 4-2-3-1 formation and revert to Sarri’s 4-3-3 system.
Matteo Guendouzi & Nicolo Rovella to Maintain Starting Roles
This tactical change will have little impact on Nicolo Rovella and Matteo Guendouzi, two players who were brought by Sarri and took their game up a notch with Baroni. The Italian would be the ideal deep-lying playmaker in the three-man midfield, while the Frenchman is a competent box-to-box midfielder. Nevertheless, the identity of the third midfielder remains shrouded in mystery.
Lazio Need a New Midfielder
As Il Corriere dello Sport notes, Matias Vecino’s future remains uncertain with his contract expiring at the end of the month, while Fisayo Dele-Bashiru hasn’t entirely impressed in his first season in Italian football. Danilo Cataldi could return following a loan spell at Fiorentina, but he was considered a Regista during Sarri’s first reign rather than a box-to-box midfielder.
Therefore, the management will likely have to resort to the market. The Roman newspaper believes Fazzini’s name could return in fashion, as he’s a profile who was appreciated by the former Chelsea and Juventus boss.
Lazio Already Tried to Sign Jacopo Fazzini in January
The Biancocelesti tried to sign the 22-year-old in January, but failed to find an agreement with Empoli, with the two clubs clashing in public. Nevertheless, with the Tuscans suffering relegation to Serie B, keeping the young midfielder at the Carlo Castellani Stadium is highly unlikely.
The young midfielder was in superb form at the end of the season, scoring four goals and providing an assist in his last six rounds, but it wasn’t enough to salvage the Azzurri.
I like Fazzini.
Welcome back Mister Sarri!
I do like Ryan Cherki more though😁
His standard is too high for the wallet of Lotito. The root problem why Lazio cannot return to the peak level is the purchasing style of Lotito. Inzaghi
although lost 0:5 to PSG last night, he can guide the club to the top when appropriate resource is available.
Not the 4-3-3 again..
Fazzini would be a great addition to the midfield. Buy him Tito!
We also need Strikers! Taty and Noslin need to be sold…
Believe this or not lazio problems last year was mainly and most of the games in the middle area Rovela was perfect 8/10 which perfect
Vacino 3/10
Bashiro 4/10 but still young and could score
Ghandouzi the disaster 2/10 playing nearly every game could not get ball back or hit with head or strong feet like rovella so can score from outside the goal area always pass ball back to his team side with his performance affected all the team specially the back line with alot of pressure on the team because of weakness in middle just go watch the games again when Ghandouzi was out you will clear see and notice the difference for example atlanta Game please Sarri or however work on this poont it is very important
