Lazio, 16 July 2022 – The hunt for a deputy Immobile in home Lazio it may already be over. And it may not have produced any results, given that Maurizio Sarri has identified among his players who will play in the center of the attack in the event that the center forward of the national team is not available. It is about Matteo Cancellieriarrived a few weeks ago from Verona.
Cancellieri convinces Sarri
In the first phase of the Biancoceleste retreat, the Tuscan coach repeatedly tried the former Verona offensive winger in the role of first striker. An experiment that was successful: Sarri wants to insist with Cancellieri as the first solution in case of absence of Immobile, taking advantage of the flexibility of the 2002 class which at this point can be used in all the roles of the Lazio attack. The solution of the false nueve is typical of Maurizio Sarri: already last year, when Immobile was not available, the biancoceleste coach had decided to bet on Pedro or Felipe Anderson in the role of first striker, despite their natural position was that of attacking winger.
Overtaking between the posts
Instead, the search for a deputy continues Maximian between the posts. The track leading to Ivan Provedel it is still hot, but it may not be the one that will materialize: the biancoceleste management would in fact have targeted Udinese goalkeeper Marco Silvestri, a solution that in the end could prevail due to the lower cost of the tag. As a third option, Lazio also evaluates Pietro Terraccianodestined for a second role in Florence after the arrival of Pierluigi Gollini.
