Lazio targets midfielder Marco Brescianini for transfer

Lazio manager Gennaro Gattuso has identified Fiorentina midfielder Marco Brescianini as his preferred option to strengthen the squad, preferring him over fellow youngster Giovanni Fabbian. The 26‑year‑old, a former Atalanta player, is praised for his versatility, able to operate as a mezzala or trequartista, and for his work‑rate and goal contribution – 10 goals and five assists in 92 Serie A appearances.

Lazio are reportedly considering a loan deal without an obligatory purchase clause, a structure that would help the club meet its financial constraints while giving Brescianini the chance to prove himself in a 4‑2‑3‑1 system. The move would see the player leave Fiorentina, where he has struggled for playing time since joining in January, and join the Biancocelesti.

Both articles note that the transfer interest aligns with Lazio’s broader plan to revamp their midfield after moving away from Maurizio Sarri’s 4‑3‑3 formation.
