Hello Goodbye

By: salvatore | Comments 3 Comments

The team said goodbye to some people yesterday, and are about to say hello to Francelino Matuzalem.
Essentially, the former Napoli and Brescia centrocampista is already a Lazio player, but he has to still undergo a medical on Monday before anything can be finalized. In any case, it now looks like he (and not Fernandez) [...]

Some Transfer News

By: salvatore | Comments 10 Comments

It seemed as if Lazio’s mercato was now going to be restricted to shedding some of the excess players still on the books (42 at last count), but evidently, the “in” door of the transfer campaign is still open.
First up is news that the team has signed Swiss international Stephan Lichtsteiner.

The 24-year old right-back [...]

Another look…

At this season’s new jerseys:

You can buy these here at the newly launched Lazio store.
The only problem with this photo? Pandev started making a lot of noise today about leaving the team at the end of this upcoming season. It seems he’s not happy with the way his contract renegotiation is going, claiming that [...]

News Round-Up

By: salvatore | Comments 6 Comments

There are various new tidbits and other things I’ve been sitting on for a bit. First up, Mauro Zarate’s loan deal has been made official today, with management depositing his contract with the Lega Calcio. Reportedly, both Middlesbrough and Portsmouth tried to hijack the deal yesterday with last-minute offers, but Maurito had his mind set [...]

The Zarate Kid and Kozak

By: salvatore | Comments 5 Comments

A newly shorn Mauro Zarate landed in Rome this morning, and even though he has not yet officially been presented to the media, you can say for all intents and purposes, he has begun his Lazio career. Personally, I’ve been getting more excited about his signing with every passing day, and I’m really looking forward [...]

Odds and Ends

By: salvatore | Comments 10 Comments

Here are a few things that have been kicking around Lazio land in the last couple of days.
First up, the new jerseys for this season were unveiled a little while back, so I thought I should put up a pic. There’s no sponsor yet (Edileuropa were on the shirt for the second part of [...]

The Zarate Kid

By: salvatore | Comments 14 Comments

Well, I’ve been sitting on this bit of news for the last couple of days, mostly because I didn’t think it was going to lead to anything, but as it turns out, I’m a shit interpreter of news. It seems that the deal for Rodrigo Palacio has hit a bit of a snag, and in [...]

Foggia and Radu.

By: salvatore | Comments 2 Comments

Cagliari has declined to exercise the buy-out option on Pasquale Foggia, so the speedy winger has returned to Lazio, to both add some much needed pace and creativity, and make sure we have all the necessary Napolitana underworld connections (just kidding…I think).
Delio didn’t seem convinced of his ability back in 2006 (and in fact, [...]

More Palacio…

By: salvatore | Comments 3 Comments

Numerous reports have come out in the last couple of days that point to an increasingly likely Lazio swoop for Rodrigo Palacio (of course now that I’ve written that, the whole deal will probably collapse). It seems that even though Palacio’s family is pushing for a move to Spain, the only real concrete European offer [...]
