Overview
- SS Lazio confirmed the permanent signing of Andrea Pinamonti from Sassuolo after he passed a medical in Rome.
- Reports say the deal features a modest upfront fee of roughly €2–3 million and sizeable performance-related add-ons that could raise the total to about €12 million.
- Sassuolo only cleared Pinamonti to travel after they moved close to signing Sebastiano Esposito as his likely replacement.
- Petar Ratkov has given the green light to a possible loan to Sevilla with an option to buy, keeping Lazio's forward roster subject to further change.
- The move fulfills manager Gennaro Gattuso's request for a dependable centre‑forward and illustrates how Lazio is using conditional payments to strengthen the squad while sticking to net‑zero spending constraints.
