韋利重返拉素?
Christian Vieri is on the verge of a sensational return to Lazio, the club
he last played for in 1999.
The Italian international is currently a free agent after the end of his
spell at Atalanta, where he scored just two goals in seven Serie A
appearances.
Kept off the field for over a year by injury, he is eager to resume his
career in the Champions League with Lazio.
President Claudio Lotito has already announced that his club will sign “a
striker and a midfielder,” so Vieri fits the bill.
Reports in the ‘Corriere dello Sport’ claim Lotito is seriously
considering the proposal to take on the player who turns 34 on Thursday.
The Biancocelesti are in the preliminary round of the Champions League and
would welcome the addition of an experienced centre-forward to help Tommaso
Rocchi and Goran Pandev.
Vieri moved from Atletico Madrid to Lazio in 1998, but stayed only one
season before shattering the world transfer record with a £32.1m switch to
Inter.
His wages have dropped considerably since then, as ‘Bobo’ now earns around
£200,000 per season.
Following six years at Inter, Vieri went on to brief and unsuccessful spells
at Milan, Monaco and Atalanta, plus a few weeks in which he was under
contract at Sampdoria only to terminate it without attending a single
training session.
In other news, Lazio have been boosted by Luciano Zauri’s contract
extension until June 30, 2012.
