Lotito Freezes Lazio Contracts Until June

Lazio President Claudio Lotito has reportedly frozen all decisions regarding new contracts and the future of coach Maurizio Sarri until June.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Lotito is refusing to discuss extensions for key players including Alessio Romagnoli, Mario Gila, and Patric. Only Toma Basic has a realistic chance of an agreement, while Pedro and Elseid Hysaj are set to depart. The financial restriction follows a summer transfer embargo and aims to control the budget ahead of the Coppa Italia semi-final.
