Lazio Open Talks With Santiago Gimenez’s Agent

Lazio have made early contact to explore a loan that fits the club’s tight budget.

Overview

  • Italian outlets report Lazio contacted Rafaela Pimenta, Gimenez’s agent, as an initial step but no club-to-club agreement has been announced.
  • AC Milan’s recent addition of Gonçalo Ramos is presented in coverage as a factor that could make Gimenez surplus to requirements and available to move.
  • Sources say a loan with creative financial terms is the most feasible option because Lazio lack the funds for an outright purchase and Milan would seek to reduce Gimenez’s salary burden.
  • Gimenez scored 65 goals in 105 games for Feyenoord before a €30 million move to Milan in January 2025, but he has managed only seven goals across roughly the past 18 months.
  • Lazio continue to monitor other striker targets including John Kennedy, Andrea Pinamonti, Roberto Piccoli and Carlos Espi, and coverage describes the Gimenez approach as early-stage and still speculative.
