A few weeks ago, the first rumors announced a contact from Lazio with PSG for Sergio Rico when the Roma club should lose their starting goalkeeper at the end of the season. Today, the Gazzetta dello Sport evokes persistent exchanges between Lazio and PSG for the Spanish goalkeeper.
This summer, the workforce of Lazio is due to be renewed and the Roman club should lose its titular goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha at the end of the season, but also Pepe Reina, substitute goalkeeper. Their preferred track at the post would be Sergio Rico, the Spanish goalkeeper of PSG, according to information reported by the Gazzetta dello Sport but also by several French media a few weeks ago. This day, the Italian newspaper indicates persistent contacts between Lazio and PSG for the 28-year-old goalkeeper on loan to Mallorca until the end of the season.
At the post, the Gazzetta reminds that PSG have many options, which means that parting ways with Sergio Rico does not seem to be a problem. On the Lazio side, the choice seems to have fallen on the PSG doorman since the Gazzetta reports that the tracks of Gollini and Arrizabalaga have been abandoned by the Romans. Lazio would like to negotiate a loan with an option to buy for the player, bought six million euros by PSG in the summer of 2020 and under contract with PSG until June 2024.
For Sergio Rico, this would represent a good opportunity as La Gazzetta report that Lazio are also looking for a second goalkeeper to be the possible understudy for the Spaniard, who had not been the number one goalkeeper for more than three seasons before his move. fly to Mallorca where he has always conceded at least one goal per game since his arrival.
