Journalist Fabrizio Romano revealed that Serbian player Lazar Samardžić may leave Atalanta during the upcoming January winter transfer window.

Samardžić, 23 years old, plays as a playmaker/attacking midfielder and was close to transferring to Olympique Marseille in late August, before the deal fell through.

In recent days, both Lazio and Fiorentina have inquired about the terms of signing the player, opening the door to the possibility of his departure from Atalanta in the near future.

Samardžić began his professional career at Hertha Berlin's academy in Germany before moving to Leipzig. He then made a notable impact with Udinese in the Italian league, delivering strong performances that caught attention, leading to his transfer to Atalanta in search of a new step in his football career.
