Real Valladolid Is On Verge Getting Escalante From Lazio Permanently

Vecino's shirt selection makes it clear that Escalante is increasingly out from the Lazio project. But what will be his fate?

The Argentine midfielder is close to the club, whose president is the phenomenal Ronaldo, who Lazio will face on Saturday's friendly.

Gonzalo Escalante is very close to Real Valladolid. In the morning, the Spanish club made an offer of 1.5 million euros plus a bonus of 500,000 euros for the former Eibar midfielder, an offer that effectively satisfied Lotito, who was hoping to earn around 2 million euros from the Argentine's sale.

Lazio and Valladolid meet in a friendly on Saturday and are now negotiating payment terms, while the midfielder is discussing contract details with Ronaldo Il Fenomeno's club management.

Negotiations began a few weeks ago when the club was reviewing arrangements for a friendly on Saturday at 8 pm.
