New Lazio Signing Set for Debut After Impressing Sarri in Training | OneFootball

Lazio manager Maurizio Sarri is reportedly growing fond of Adrian Przyborek, who joined the club in recent weeks.

Adrian Przyborek to Make His Lazio Debut Against Cagliari?

After unblocking their market in late December, the Biancocelesti squad underwent a mini-overhaul in the middle of the season, with four players departing, and five new signing joining the first team. Daniel Maldini and Kenneth Taylor have already become regular starters, while Petar Ratkov has mostly been an option off the bench.

As for the second-choice goalkeeper Edoardo Motta, he will have to bide his time before earning his chance. On the contrary, Przyborek’s opportunity could come sooner rather than later, as multiple sources in the Italian media, including Il Messaggero and La Lazio Siamo Noi, reveal that the teenager has been winning over Sarri on the training ground.

Toma Basic & Fisayo Dele-Bashiru Could Be Dropped

These sources believe that the 19-year-old is already in contention for a place against Cagliari on Saturday. Despite his return to training, Toma Basic is still struggling with pain, so it remains to be seen if he’ll be fit enough to play this weekend. On the other hand, Fisayo Dele-Bashiru has failed to impress Sarri in his recent outings, which provide an opening for Przyborek.

Why Przyborek Can Be an Important Player for Lazio

The teenager is a playmaker who originally plays as an attacking midfielder. Nevertheless, he will have to adjust to a box-to-box role in Lazio’s current 4-3-3 formation. The creative Pole will try to restore the flair that has been missing in the Aquile’s midfield since Luis Alberto’s departure in 2024.

But it remains to be seen if Sarri is willing to entrust him with a starting role, or will instead introduce him in the second half.
