Last summer, Eintracht Frankfurt needed a replacement for Filip Kostic on the left flank, so he managed to return to Germany with Luca Pellegrini.
The Italian joined Juventus in 2019 in a trade that sent Leonardo Spinazzola to Roma, but has been mostly on loan ever since.
In recent weeks, various sources have suggested that the 23-year-old finish his loan spell in Germany and join Lazio in January, even if some hurdles remain.
According to Lalaziosiamonoi.it via TuttoJuve, Pellegrini has given priority to Lazio, but the capital team will have to make some sales to make room for the left back.
Furthermore, the source claims that the Biancocelesti would have a hard time matching his current salary, but the player would be willing to make a financial sacrifice to push through the transfer.
This season, Pellegrini has played nine Bundesliga games and four in the Champions League, but he may have already played his last game for Frankfurt.
Juve FC says
Last season, Pellegrini put in decent performances for Max Allegri’s side, so perhaps he could be a useful mid-season addition for Juventus.
However, it seems that the left-back is not destined to enjoy a long season in Turin due to his recurring loan spells. Therefore, a transfer to Lazio could be the best solution for all parties.
