Lazio’s transfer activity continues as the club is reportedly considering a loan move for Napoli’s Cyril Ngonge. The Belgian forward, who joined Napoli from Verona last season, could be set for another change of scenery.
Sky Sport Italia’s Gianluca Di Marzio reports that Marco Baroni’s Lazio has expressed interest in bringing Ngonge to the Stadio Olimpico. The current Lazio manager is familiar with Ngonge’s abilities, having worked with him during his previous stint at Verona. This existing relationship could be a key factor in facilitating the potential move.
The possibility of this transfer materializing is likely to increase towards the end of the transfer window, particularly if Lazio manages to offload one of their current attacking options. This would create space in the squad and potentially free up funds for Ngonge’s arrival.
It’s worth noting that there are ongoing negotiations between Lazio and Napoli regarding midfielder Michael Folorunsho, which could potentially influence the discussions about Ngonge.
Ngonge’s potential loan move to Lazio could provide him with more regular playing time, which might be limited at Napoli given their depth in attacking positions. For Lazio, acquiring a player of Ngonge’s caliber could bolster their offensive options as they aim to improve on last season’s performance.
