He underwent ankle surgery early last season after several setbacks, then returned to full fitness this summer. Gennaro Gattuso, his former Marseille coach, was pleased to have him through pre-season.
Even so, Lazio opted to reduce their wage bill and he was among the higher earners steered towards the exit.
Now a free agent at 32, Gigot has interest from Qatar, Türkiye and Ligue 1.
