Lazio interested in this Nigerian forward

George Ilenikhena is among the options being considered by Lazio to bolster their attack. The Roman club is on the hunt for a young, high-potential striker following the departure of Valentín Castellanos to West Ham.

At just 19 years old, the Nigerian forward has been playing for AS Monaco since July 2024. He is under contract with the Principality club until June 2029 and has made two Ligue 1 appearances this season. His current market value is estimated at €12 million, according to Transfermarkt.

Ilenikhena is on a short list alongside Agustín Ruberto and Shaqueel Van Persie. His performances have also caught the eye of German clubs such as Stuttgart and Eintracht Frankfurt. This is certainly a transfer story to keep an eye on!
