Luis Alberto Remains Determined to Depart Lazio

2 weeks ago 13

Luis Alberto has been playing well since he announced he would leave Lazio at the end of the season, looking reinvigorated and committed to the cause and buying into the scheme and philosophy of new coach Igor Tudor. He kissed the club’s badge after scoring a recent goal. On the other hand, his stance about his future hasn’t changed, Il Messaggero informed.

Rather than pouting, the midfielder is giving his all to finish his Biancocelesti spell on a high note. They are trying to mount a comeback and grab one of the top five positions and qualify for the Champions League.

Despite his improved form and renewed motivations, Luis Alberto won’t backtrack and will attempt to force his way out of Lazio in July. He’ll have to convince the officials, who have denied his exit on multiple occasions due to his long-term contract.

Sevilla, Olympique Marseille, and the Qatari league are the most likely landing spots for the mercurial Spaniard. Instead, the Biancocelesti have earmarked Monza star Andrea Colpani as a potential replacement.

Our Take on Lazio and Luis Alberto

If he really digs his heels in, it’ll be a clash of titans in the summer, as Claudio Lotito has refused to budge in similar situations in the past. He’ll have to bring a nice offer to the table, as it’s highly unlikely he’ll be let go for free as he demands. Given his age, iit’smore likely to come from exotic championships.
