Lazio president rejects €450 million US investor bid for club

SS Lazio club denied reports of a €450 million acquisition offer that was said to have come from American investors through JP Morgan. The club’s statement said the story was "completely unfounded" and that no proposal or expression of interest had ever reached the organization.

Separate reporting noted that President Claudio Lotito turned down a €450 million offer presented by the same investors, reiterating his intent to retain control of the club amid ongoing fan protests over perceived under‑investment and recent transfer restrictions.

The dispute adds to tension between the club’s leadership and its ultras, who have been demonstrating against Lotito’s management style and financial decisions.
