Lazio Linked With Liverpool’s Javier Mascherano

Serie A outfit Lazio are reportedly set to make a swoop for Liverpool midfielder Javier Mascherano when the transfer window opens in January.

Lazio are currently in the Champions League and are looking to strengthen their midfield with the Argentina international captain reportedly being their top target.

According to sources in Italy, Macherano’s agent Walter Tamer has been informed about Lazio’s interest in the player where Tamer has reportedly said that the midfielder could make a switch to Italy.

Mascherano is getting frustrated about his lack of chances at Anfield, as Reds boss Rafa Benitez seems to prefer Steven Gerrard and Xabi Alonso to the Argentinean and Lazio are apparently looking to take full advantage of the situation.
