The new Lazio is speeding ahead while the “old” team is gearing up for their final 180 minutes of the season. Tomorrow they face Inter at San Siro, followed by Sassuolo next week at the Olimpico. The focus is now shifting towards the squad for the next season. The sporting director Fabiani highlighted that there won’t be a total overhaul, but there will be several changes. The first new addition could be Robin Gosens from Germany, who previously played for Inter and Atalanta and is now with Union Berlin in the Bundesliga. Talks to bring Gosens to Lazio are in the final stages, with the German left-back’s experience in Italian football making him an attractive prospect for the Roman club.
Bringing in Gosens could fill a long-standing gap in Lazio’s squad – a strong left-sided defender. Luca Pellegrini’s arrival didn’t quite address the issue, especially with the new coach Tudor emphasizing the need for wing-backs. Marusic currently occupies the position but performs better on the right. Gosens, who is turning 30 in July, brings a wealth of experience and familiarity with Italian football. He’s known for his tireless work ethic, technical ability, and knack for scoring goals. His arrival could bolster Lazio’s defense and add attacking depth, key qualities in Tudor’s team setup.
Gosens’ adaptability and goal-scoring prowess make him a valuable potential addition to Lazio. Throughout his career, he has demonstrated his ability to contribute at both ends of the pitch. With 7 goals this season – 6 in the Bundesliga and 1 in the Champions League – and a total of 29 goals during his time at Atalanta, Gosens could provide a significant attacking threat from the back for Lazio. The German’s imminent arrival could signal an exciting new chapter for both him and the club, enhancing Lazio’s prospects for the upcoming season.
