Lazio ‘to hold’ fresh talks with Mauro Icardi as Gattuso set for internal meetings | OneFootball

Lazio are making a renewed push to sign free agent Mauro Icardi, with internal discussions planned before any decision on a move.

Sky Sport Italia reports that negotiations with the former Inter Milan captain have restarted and that he is now more open to joining Lazio. The outlet adds that club executives are due to hold internal meetings with Gennaro Gattuso on Monday and Tuesday before deciding whether to proceed.

The 33-year-old ended a four-year spell at Galatasaray at the end of last season and has taken time before committing to a new project.

His agent has said talks with Lazio have taken place, stressing the priority is the right project and a city that suits his lifestyle rather than money.

Icardi spent eight seasons in Serie A with Sampdoria and Inter, making 219 appearances, scoring 121 goals and delivering 31 assists.
