Petar Ratkov transfer situation at Lazio

Overview

Lazio striker Petar Ratkov, who joined the club for a €13 million fee, has struggled to secure playing time under manager Gennaro Gattuso. Initially, the club faced difficulties in selling the player because management was reluctant to accept a price lower than the original investment, citing financial risks and broader squad needs.

As the transfer window progressed, Ratkov reportedly moved closer to a transfer to Sevilla in Spain. The potential deal is expected to be a loan with an option to buy. In the process, the player turned down interest from Crvena zvezda, Dynamo Moscow, and Southampton, expressing a preference for competing in stronger European leagues.
