Football Italia revealed that Giacomo Raspadori has become a proposed option for Lazio, amid coach Maurizio Sarri's longstanding desire to sign the player, a wish that dates back to before the club's transfer ban was imposed this summer.

The site explained that Sarri had identified Raspadori as a perfect deal, expecting his departure from Napoli during the last transfer window, before Atletico Madrid intervened and completed his signing, although his move to the Spanish club did not grant him the required continuity due to limited appearances and extended periods on the bench.

The same source indicated that Raspadori's move to Lazio might be possible but under specific conditions, the most prominent being resolving the future of Castellanos, whose remaining matches this year will determine his fate, in addition to the necessity of finding a formula that allows the club to complete an offensive departure before finalizing any new deal, amid the usual complications related to salaries, loan terms, and timing of moves.

The report confirmed that Lazio's ability to engage in the deal entirely depends on the nature of the restrictions imposed on the club in the transfer market, as the door to signing Raspadori will not open until the club's official position becomes clear. Conversely, the Italian forward does not want to spend another six months without actual playtime, making him open to any project that grants him trust and continuity.

The report also clarified that Sarri had dreamed of signing Mikel Oyarzabal as well, but Real Sociedad completely closed the door after renewing their player's contract until June 2028. Lazio will continue to closely monitor the situation while Raspadori awaits an opportunity that allows him stability and consistent appearances.
