Maurizio Sarri will reportedly hold talks with Lazio over becoming their new manager today with the former Chelsea and Juventus boss closing in on a return to Italy.
A meeting between Sarri, 62, and club president Claudio Lotito is expected to see the final details for the appointment ironed out - and it is believed that the veteran coach is leaning towards taking the job.
Calciomercato claim that there is optimism at Lazio over the deal, and the club will look to convince Sarri of the project by insisting they plan to keep their best players and invest in the summer market.
