NANI
Nani has arrived in Rome ahead of completing a move to Lazio
from Valencia.
The 30-year-old was pictured at Rome
Airport with a club scarf as he prepares to tie up the formalities of his
transfer. There are, however, conflicting reports as to the makeup of the deal
for the Portuese winger.
According to Calciomercato
negotiations have reached an advanced stage over a permanent move that could
well be up to €15million (£13.8m). However, Sky Italia say Lazio will pay
€8million (£7.3m) fee for an initial loan, with an option or obligation to buy.
Nani, who has two years left on his
deal at the Mestalla, did not feature in Valencia's opening game of the season
- a 2-2 draw with Real Madrid at the Bernabeu last weekend.
The forward performed well at Euro
2016 as Portugal won the European Championship, earning his switch to the
Mestalla last summer.
He made 25 La Liga appearances in
the 2016-17 campaign, scoring five goals and creating eight more.
During his time at Old Trafford, Nani won four Premier
League titles as well as winning the Champions League in the 2007-08 campaign.
As part of the same deal with agent
Jorge Mendes, Lazio will also sign youngsters Bruno Jordao and Pedro Neto from
Braga.
Meanwhile, Lazio target Lucas
Perez looks to be edging closer to a return to
Deportivo La Coruna.
