Raspadori Stalls on Roma Move as Lazio Weigh Swap With Atlético

Overview

• Roma and Atlético have a club-level agreement for a loan with a buy clause, with reports citing a €2 million fee now and about €19 million later.
• Atlético have told Raspadori the offer is accepted, but he has asked three to four days to decide and is thought to prefer a permanent transfer.
• Lazio and Galatasaray have registered interest, and Lazio’s expected €30 million from Taty Castellanos strengthens their ability to bid outright.
• New reporting says Lazio and Atlético have discussed a swap that would send Matteo Guendouzi to Madrid and Raspadori to Lazio, likely with a cash adjustment.
• A tight window looms due to Atlético’s match against Real Sociedad and travel for the Spanish Super Cup, which could delay talks by roughly ten days if no decision comes soon.
