The Portuguese arrives on loan from Granada, for Provedel the Spezia will receive 4 million. Now the Romagnoli operation remains to be closed for the Biancocelesti
The absence of the two goalkeepers in the squad available to Maurizio Sarri could not last long. A need that had been clearly manifested by the coach, satisfied in these hours. In fact, Lazio has practically closed a double operation to bring Luis Maximiano of Granada and Ivan Provedel of Spezia to the biancoceleste.

As for the Portuguese born in 1999, he will arrive with the formula of an onerous loan of 2 million euros with the right of redemption set at 6; the Spanish club will also be entitled to 20% of any future resale. The player’s agents have been in Rome, outlining the agreement with the club: now only the last bureaucratic formalities remain to be resolved before signing the contract. During the day, an agreement was also reached with Gianni Rava, Provedel’s attorney, while about 4 million will go to the Ligurians. In the discussions that have taken place, he has been guaranteed that he is not bought with degrees of second, but that he will play for the place with Maximiano.

Waiting for Romagnoli
—
We will have to wait a few more days, however, for the announcement of Alessio Romagnoli. The defender, released after not having renewed with Milan, only has to sign the documents, then presumably it will be formalized at the beginning of next week. His engagement is linked to the sale of Acerbi, which is out but not an easy operation: he still has a three-year contract for 2.5 million per season and Lotito’s request to let him leave is about 4. At the moment no offers have arrived and they are not expected in the short term, but in the meantime the climate is becoming increasingly tense. The fans present at Auronzo’s retreat, in fact, challenged him when he arrived. Hysaj, Marusic and the two signings Casale and Marcos Antonio also joined him, while tomorrow should be Milinkovic-Savic’s day.

Other negotiations
—
In any case, Lazio is also active on other fronts. Ilic is now promised to the Biancocelesti if Luis Alberto were to leave, even if Sarri hopes that he can arrive anyway, perhaps through the treasury for the sale of Muriqi. The negotiations with Bruges, ready to buy it for 11 million, however, suffered an abrupt interruption due to some problems during the medical examinations. It is possible that the Belgians make a counter-offer for a loan, but Lazio would prefer to get rid of it outright. If the transfer actually takes place, it is not certain that we will intervene on the market for a deputy property: the coach is trying Cancellieri as a first striker, even if it is not his natural role, and at the moment it is not a priority. In the meantime, a young left winger is being worked on: the names in this sense are Valeri della Cremonese (1998) and Varela del Monaco (2003).
