Lazio reject bids from Manchester United and Real Madrid

Lazio president Claudio Lotito has reportedly rejected numerous bids from the likes of AC Milan, Real Madrid and Manchester United for four of the club’s star players.

The sum of the offers is believed to amount to €105 million but owner Lotito is resolute in his desire to hold onto his best players.

The Corriere Della Sera claims that Manchester United had a €25 million offer for Dutch defender Stefan De Vrij turned down, while an unsuccessful €35 million move from the Red Devils and Bayern Munich for Felipe Anderson was equally rejected by the Rome-based outfit.

Milan’s €20 million approach for midfielder Marco Parolo was similarly rebuffed whilst La Liga heavyweights Real Madrid had a reported €25 million offer for the Biancocelesti’s newly-appointed captain, Lucas Biglia, turned down.

The Aquile are intent on keeping the spine of their team intact as they prepare for a Champion’s League campaign following an impressive third-placed finish in Serie A last season.
