Lazio 'join Inter & Napoli in race to sign Verona starlet Kumbulla'

  /  autty

Lazio have joined the race to sign Hellas Verona centre back Marash Kumbulla according to a report in today's print edition of Il Messaggero.

Having been unconvinced by €12 million signing Denis Vavro, Lazio sporting director Igli Tare has been in contact with Kumbulla's representatives over a possible Summer transfer window move to the Italian capital.

The Biancocelesti club face competition from Inter and Napoli for Kumbulla. Inter have an agreement with the player but not Hellas Verona whilst Napoli have it vice versa in that they have no agreement with the 19-year-old but do with Hellas Verona.

Kumbulla has proven himself as one of the best up and coming young defenders in Serie A this season and has not been far off ever present in their side this term.

The Albanian international, who is under contract with the Gialloblu club until the end of the 2021/22 season, has made 17 appearances across all competitions, in which he has scored a single goal.
