Lazio are closing in on a deal for San Lorenzo defender Santiago Gentiletti.
The twenty-nine-year-old joined the Matadores in 2012 from Argentinos Juniors after spending the 2011/2012 season on loan at French Ligue 1 side Brest.
According to Sky Sport Italia, the Biancocelesti are closing in on a deal for the centre-back with the capital club paying his buy-out clause of €2 milion with the offer of a three-year contract on the table.
The Argentine has just helped the Buenos Aires side win their first ever Copa Libertadores title with a 2-1 aggregate win over Nacional of Paraguay.
It is also worth mentioning Gentiletti is of Croatian decent and is the holder of an Italian passport.
