Lazio are reportedly setting their sights on a young goalkeeper born in 2002, as the situation surrounding Ivan Provedel evolves.
According to Il Messaggero, there could be a shift in the coming season between Lazio’s two goalkeepers, Christos Mandas and Ivan Provedel.
The Greek shot-stopper, Mandas, is being eyed up for a potential role as the team’s new first-choice goalkeeper.
Meanwhile, Provedel, previously of Spezia, may be on his way out of the club in the next summer transfer window.
The source suggests that Mandas’ impressive performances have caught the attention of the team’s management, paving the way for him to take the leading role between the sticks.
“The competition for the starting spot is fierce, and Mandas has what it takes to challenge for it,” Il Messaggero states, indicating a possible changing of the guard at Lazio.
Transfers could be on the horizon, with Provedel potentially being placed on the market to make room for Mandas’ increased presence.
This development will be closely monitored as Lazio look to strengthen their squad and make tactical adjustments ahead of the next season.
