Lazio agree Dia sale to Rennes for €8.5m, ‘to request’ Man from PSV | OneFootball

Sky Sport Italia reports that Lazio have agreed a deal worth around €8.5m to sell Boulaye Dia to Rennes, and plan to pursue PSV Eindhoven forward Dennis Man as his replacement.

Dia started last night’s 1-0 Serie A win over Genoa at the Stadio Olimpico, despite his availability on the market. It was likely his final appearance in a Lazio shirt.

The 29-year-old joined from sister club Salernitana in 2024 for about €11.3m, and has 14 goals and six assists in 81 competitive games.

He is preparing for medical tests in France as Lazio look for a replacement. Man, now at PSV, is familiar with Serie A after his stint at Parma.

Lazio are proposing a loan with an option to buy, a formula the Dutch club are not easily accepting. Parma sold Man last summer for €9.1m plus add-ons.
