Lazio seeks Girona's Arnau Martinez as Romagnoli prepares for Al-Sadd transfer
Summary

Lazio is set to part ways with defender Alessio Romagnoli, who is finalizing a transfer to Al-Sadd. The club has reportedly agreed to a €3 million fee for Romagnoli, who has struggled with his relationship with Lazio's president. To fill the void, Lazio is considering Arnau Martinez from Girona, known for his versatility as he can play both right-back and center-back. Martinez, whose contract runs until June 2027, registered two goals and three assists in 35 appearances this season, although Girona was relegated. Lazio's pursuit of Martinez comes as they may lose another defender, Manuel Lazzari.
