All decisions now depend on Petar Ratkov. This is something that Lazio is well aware of from a technical perspective after the player scored six goals in four recent friendly matches. Ratkov is holding the fate of Lazio's attack in the transfer context. Yesterday, Dinamo Moscow had a surprise negotiation and quickly reached an agreement with Lazio on an offer worth 15 million euros plus bonuses for the Serbian striker. If the deal goes through, it will demonstrate that the club have given up an investment that was seen as emblematic of the work of the scouting department.
From the assessments of the scouts at Bologna about his abilities, to the physical parameters of a player whose main job is to play football, not to be an athlete. After Lazio agreed to the price, what remained was the agreement from the player, who was thinking about the offer from the Moscow club. If Petar Ratkov agrees, Lazio will not let themselves be passive and has prepared two backup plans. The first option was sent to Benfica for Franjo Ivanovic, a striker born in 2003, who was not called up in the recent 6-1 victory over Hearts in the Europa League. Benfica currently only accepts Ivanovic's transfer if it is a permanent purchase agreement at a price that Lazio can hardly meet.
If Benfica does not agree to be open to such a deal, Lazio will proceed with the proposal announced today with Sassuolo worth 15 million euros for Andrea Pinamonti. Everyone is currently waiting for a decision from Petar Ratkov to determine who will be Lazio's new striker next season.
What happens next
After Lazio agreed to the price, the final decision now depends on Petar Ratkov. If he accepts an offer from Dinamo Moscow, Lazio will need to quickly look for alternatives, with Franjo Ivanovic and Andrea Pinamonti among the names being considered. The club will need to act promptly to ensure the attack is not affected in the upcoming Serie A season.
