Lazio could make a summer bid for Sunderland striker Fabio Borini, a cheaper alternative to Graziano Pellè.
The centre-forward is still only 25 years old, despite going through clubs including Bologna, Chelsea, Swansea City, Parma, Roma, Liverpool and Sunderland.
This season he scored three goals in 21 Premier League appearances and could be released for under €10m (£8m).
According to Il Messaggero newspaper, there are several reasons why Lazio are hot favourites to secure Borini.

He shares the same entourage as Lazio midfielder Danilo Cataldi and is available at a price-tag that would be affordable.
The Aquile will see Alessandro Matri return to Milan after his loan spell and Miroslav Klose is nearing retirement.
Lazio’s first choice is Pellè, but the Italy international is valued at closer to €15m by Southampton.
