Lazio adds Juventus’ star to their shopping list
Edon Zhegrova is one of the players Juventus would love to sell this summer, even though he has spent just a season on their books, with Tuttomercatoweb reporting that Lazio are the team keen to sign him now.
Lazio is looking for some late deals to strengthen their squad in this window, which has given Juve a chance to offload one of their flops. This could be an important season at Juve for Zhegrova, but the attacker would leave if the right offer for his signature emerges, as is the case with Lazio.
Lazio consider Zhegrova move
Lazio have been following him, and they believe he can do well in their team if they add him to the squad in the coming weeks. Zhegrova could also be open to the move if it offers him the opportunity to revive his career and find greater consistency.
The attacker has been struggling with form and fitness since moving to Juve from Lille, and the Bianconeri would be more than happy to sanction his exit during this window . His time in Turin has not developed as they would have hoped, leaving the club prepared to consider a suitable offer.
Lazio’s interest therefore represents an opportunity for both sides; they would gain another attacking option, while Juventus could move on from a player who has struggled to make the desired impact.

Juventus welcome Lazio interest
Juventus have waited all summer for a team to approach them about adding Zhegrova to their squad, and Lazio’s interest in his signature will be welcomed by the men at the Allianz Stadium. However, it remains unclear whether the player would want to join them .
Zhegrova now faces an important decision over his future. Remaining at Juventus could give him another opportunity to prove himself, particularly if he can overcome his fitness problems, but a move to Lazio could provide him with a fresh start.
For Juventus, the priority will be finding an agreement that allows them to move the winger on before the transfer window closes. The club are keen to reshape their squad and would welcome the opportunity to reduce the number of players they no longer consider central to their plans.
Lazio will now have to determine whether they can reach an agreement with Juventus and convince Zhegrova that a move to their squad is the right step.
With the transfer window entering its final stages, his future remains uncertain. Juventus are ready to listen to offers, while Lazio’s interest could finally provide the exit the Bianconeri have been waiting for.
