Lazio could finalise a deal for AZ Alkmaar defender Wesley Hoedt in the next 48 hours as the two clubs are close to an agreement.
The 20-year-old centre back is highly rated by a number of Europe’s top clubs. The Biancolesti have offered around €900,000 with add-ons of €350,000 as Stefano Pioli looks to create competition for places within his squad.
Il Messaggero are reporting that the Dutch defender is set to arrive in the capital tomorrow morning ahead of his move to Serie A.
The Netherlands U-20 international has made just 12 Dutch First Division appearances for AZ since making his debut in the Europa League against Greek outfit PAOK, playing the full match as the sides drew 2-2.
