Liverpool defender Dejan Lovren is a summer transfer target for Serie A highflyers Lazio. The Rome based club are said to be interested in bringing the Croatian to the Italian capital – that’s according to lalaziosiamonoi.it (via Football Italia).
The 30-year-old signed for the Anfield giants in 2014 for a reported £22.77m (via Transfermarkt.co.uk) and has since made 184 appearances in the famous Liverpool strip. Here’s how some of the fans have responded to the reports he’s being targeted by another club.

What do we think?
Dejan Lovren has been limited to just nine Premier League appearances so far this season. His contract is set to expire in July 2021 and therefore from a financial perspective, we believe it would make sense to cash in on the former Southampton defender if an attractive offer is on the table.
According to Transfermarkt.co.uk, Lovren is currently valued at £18m which gives us an idea of what the Reds might be looking for in regards to a transfer fee.
