Lazio Put €40M Price Tag On Isaksen Amid Interest From Inter And Tottenham
Lazio winger Gustav Isaksen is quickly becoming one of the hottest names ahead of the summer transfer window, with Serie A giants Inter Milan reportedly set to rival Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur for the Danish star’s signature.
The 22-year-old, who joined Lazio from Danish side Midtjylland in the summer of 2023 for around €10 million plus bonuses, has impressed in this Serie A season under coach Marco Baroni. With five goals and five assists in all competitions, Isaksen has established himself as a key figure in the Biancoceleste squad.
According to La Repubblica, Inter Milan have identified Isaksen as a potential reinforcement for their squad this summer. However, they could face stiff competition from Tottenham, who have also been monitoring the Denmark international’s progress in Italy.
Lazio are reportedly prepared to listen to offers for the winger, but only if they reach their €40 million valuation. The club sees Isaksen as a valuable asset and won’t let him leave for less, especially if multiple clubs enter the race for his services.
While Inter manager Simone Inzaghi typically deploys a 3-5-2 system that doesn’t utilize traditional wingers, reports suggest that Isaksen could be adapted into a wing-back role, giving him the flexibility to fit into the Nerazzurri’s tactical plans.
Isaksen’s performances have not gone unnoticed, and with clubs across Europe expressing interest, Lazio may have a difficult task keeping hold of their rising star. As the summer transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on whether Isaksen continues his development in Rome or takes the next step in his career elsewhere.
