Italian Serie A club SS Lazio are hoping to sign Super Eagles and Liverpool striker Taiwo Awoniyi in the summer transfer window.
The Biancocelesti are on the brink of announcing the capture of another Nigerian-born player in Bobby Adekanye and they also want to bring Awoniyi to the club in the coming weeks, the Mirror UK has claimed.
Liverpool have made it clear that interested clubs would have to cough up ten million pounds to sign the Nigeria U23 international this summer.
The 21-year-old Awoniyi has scored 12 goals and registered three assists across all competitions this season for KAA Gent and Royal Excel Mouscron.
Since 2015 he has been on the books of The Reds but has been loaned out to FSV Frankfurt, NEC, Royal Excel Mouscron and Gent due to work permit issues which prevented him from playing in England.
