Il Corriere dello Sport understands that Lazio are on the verge of completing a deal for Parma midfielder Marco Parolo.
The Biancocelesti have already agreed a transfer fee with I Ducali thought to be €5.5 million plus another €1.4 million depending on performance related bonuses.
And while Lazio officials have yet to find an agreement with the player’s representatives, it is believed the two sides are only €200,000 apart at the moment, which is enough to suggest the deal will soon be wrapped up.
The Biancocelesti have identified Parolo as one of the players who could add much needed creativity to the centre of the park, with new boss Stefano Pioli eagerly awaiting the arrival of the highly rated midfielder.
Following yet another impressive season with Parma, the 29-year-old, who scored 8 goals in 36 league matches last term, was called into Cesare Prandelli’s World Cup squad despite only having four Italy caps to his name.
