Lazio linked to a Frenchman https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=537 Honestly, how on Earth can Lazio afford such a solid defender and on a very good Lyon side? I'm just askin.
Dabo wishes to stay aswell http://www.laziofever.com/news.php?section=news&subject=Dabowishestostayaswe.php Hey, finally someone loyal in football. Stop the press.
Makinwa linked to Lazio http://www.laziofever.com/news.php?section=news&subject=MakinwalinkedtoLazio.php I am still shocked that Lazio are able to afford any players. I just don't understand this debt thing...is like a credit card company? Lazio can pay it off over a million years with tons of interest? Nice one....way to screw the club and it's supporters forever. Just like Leeds, right?
Re: Makinwa linked to Lazio the €107 million they owe in taxes, plus €33 mil in interest, will be paid over a period of 23 years.
Re: Makinwa linked to Lazio Catfish, are you familiar with the concept of loan consolidation? Ask someone with a lot of student debt, they'll explain it.
Re: Makinwa linked to Lazio right, duck and nicephoras have the answers here. Basically when lotito took over there were 3 main sources of the debt. They've signed the long term tax repayment deal (interested is only 2.5%). Fiore and Corradi were given to Valencia to finish off our transfer debt and clear the club to again make euro transfers. The third portion is over 100M euro in unpaid back wages and vendor/supplier debts... I think one more round of selling (Oddo, Rocchi, Cesar) will happen and the club smartly will focus on youngsters like Makinwa...
Going to round up all transfer speculation into one thread...rumors of players both in and out. With most of the debt accounted for now, there may actually be some additions this summer.
Re: Makinwa linked to Lazio DOH! Actually, no! Go easy on me. I served in the Army for 3 years. Between the Army and the State of Illinois, I went to my university for free.
hehe.... studying is a bitch as far as finances. the girls you see every day do make up for it though
Lazio interested in Ze Roberto http://www.laziofever.com/news.php?section=news&subject=AderbytosignZeRobert.php good player...but he is more interested in AS Roma.
Di Canio to stay at Lazio http://footballmsn.skysports.com/li...title=Di+Canio+to+stay+at+Lazio&channel=Italy I know that Paulo is the heart and soul of Lazio, but isn't he gettin a tad bit old.....36!
Lazio move for Pinzi? http://www.laziofever.com/news.php?section=news&subject=LaziomoveforPinzi.php Former Lazio youth may return to the Nest?
Re: Makinwa linked to Lazio I am going easy on you. But lets say for argument's sake I have $50,000 in student loans. (Not a personal example - I have more student debt than that. ) Would I rather pay that off over 30 years or 3? Over 30 years at a reasonable interest rate, its not that bad. Over 3 years that's quite a bit of money per year which I might not have.
Re: Makinwa linked to Lazio I feel you. I should just have looked at like my mortgage. Just didn't know football clubs could do that with their debt.
Re: Makinwa linked to Lazio there was a new law passed in italy in 2002 (i think it was) that would let companies with small shareholders pay back taxes over many years. if their debth was player salaries, they could potentially be playing in serie c1 next season, because then it would be up to the players if they would accept being paid over a longer period.
we can label the first move official. We buy the other half of Rocchi's contract from Empoli for 2.2M Euro. Giannichedda to Juve on a free seems done and GK Sereni will likely move for a fee....I'd rather keep him and not rely on peruzzi for next season. http://www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/apr13e.html
Good news on the transfer front? Lorenzo di Silvestri a Lazio youth player and captain of Italy's U-17 wants to stay at Lazio. Lotito wants Fiore back. I really hope that one happens! (Although its unlikely )
Oddo to Milan? http://www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/may18e.html Trap In, Di Canio Out? http://www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/may18f.html
Lazio to Offer Trap 3-Year Deal? Pure speculation at this point but I think it gets done soon....Papa's days are numbered. http://www.tribalfootball.com/may/italnews2190505.html
Trapatoni's already gone I think Camacho will be taking over Benfica and theres a lot of talk that Trap is Lazio bound.
http://www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/may30j.html Looks like Palermo takes back the Fillipini twins, which is fine by me. They helped us survive this season for sure...and they are tough tacklers who fight for 90 minutes. Certainly we can do better on the wings...the end of the article mentions creative midfield Zauli....would be a nice bosman signing.
