Roma and began negotiations related to the debt of the Italian club to the Spaniards. In the summer of 2001, Lazio bought a goalkeeper from the "seagulls" for 29 million pounds, but so far they have not paid 10 million. Clubs are trying to find a way out of the situation, as Lazio's financial situation is not very good. The most likely way out of the situation is for the "blue-whites" to give away several of their team's players to the leader of the Spanish championship.
Last summer, the possibility of an Argentinean returning to Valencia was considered, but the deal fell through. Currently, the candidacies of three players are being considered. The next season at the Mestalla Stadium could start with the aforementioned Claudio Lopez, a forward or a goalkeeper.
