Lazio are reportedly among four Italian clubs tracking Tigre youngster Santiago Gonzalez, as they look to bolster their midfield ranks in January.
Born & Raised in Tigre
The 21-year-old is a Tigre native who started his career at his hometown club and climbed his way up the ranks to become a member of the first team in January. This season, the midfielder has so far made 18 appearances in the Argentine top flight, contributing with a single goal and an assist.
Lazio Enter the Race for Santiago Gonzalez
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport (via Calciomercato), Gonzalez has attracted great interest from Serie A, as Lazio, Fiorentina, Venezia and Bologna are all keeping tabs on the youngster. The Argentine’s contract with Tigre is only valid until December 2025, so he could be available in January at a relatively low price.
Michael Folorunsho Still the Main Target
Gonzalez, though, isn’t always Lazio’s first pick in the midfield division. After failing to sign the 26-year-old Napoli benchwarmer Michael Folorunsho in the summer, the Biancocelesti have renewed their interest in him, according to the source. The idea of getting back together with his former Reggina and Hellas Verona student would undoubtedly excite Marco Baroni.
Warren Bondo Represents Another Option
The same report also mentions young Monza midfielder Warren Bondo as another alternative. The 21-year-old has been plying his trade with the Biancorossi since 2022, and is now a regular starter in Alessandro Nesta’s lineup.
