Lazio to Launch Contract Talks With Experienced Duo – Dates Revealed | OneFootball

Lazio are reportedly aiming to maintain Pedro and Matias Vecino beyond the current campaign, so they must find agreements with the duo over new contracts.

Pedro & Matias Vecino Running on Expiring Deals

Both veterans are currently running on expiring deals, so their futures remain uncertain. Nevertheless, sporting director Angelo Fabiani recently revealed that it is up to Pedro to decide whether he likes to stay or not, suggesting that the club has already made up his mind in this regard.

Lazio coach Marco Baroni also echoed the desire to keep the 37-year-old who has been enjoying an Indian Summer this season. He has thus far scored nine goals and provided his teammates with four assists in 27 appearances in all competitions.

Pedro to Make Lazio Decision in the Summer

According to Il Corriere dello Sport, the former Barcelona and Chelsea star is mad about the Aquile, but could also be tempted by a return to his home country. In any case, the Roman newspaper expects him to make the final decision at the end of the season as he always does. The versatile attacker currently earns a net salary of €2.2 million per year.

Lazio to Discuss Matias Vecino Extension in the Spring

As for Vecino, he’s currently focused on making his return to the pitch after several months of absence. He’s expected to rejoin his teammates in group training next week. But in the spring, the player’s entourage will reportedly start their negotiations with the Lazio directors over a contract renewal.

Vital Player

The 33-year-old might not be a regular starter, but like Pedro, he’s considered an important option with invaluable experience. The source denies recent links with Fenerbahce while revealing that the midfielder is looking for a new home in the center of Rome, hinting that his future will lie at Formello. His current salary is €1.8 million per year.
