Lazio signed Argentine hitman Mauro Zarate on loan from Qatar side Al-Sadd last summer with an option to secure his services on a permanent basis by paying an initial sum of €8 million by April 30.

There have been reports that Biancocelesti President Claudio Lotito will soon travel to Qatar to finalise the deal, but several sources suggest that the Italian capital club should hurry up, as the Argentine’s exploits have drawn interest from a number of sides, including Fiorentina, Real Madrid and Manchester City.

However, FIFA agent Jose Alberti, who brokered the deal to take the ‘Zarate Kid’ to Lazio, is confident everything will go smoothly.

“The other party [Al-Sadd] is very keen to respect the agreement reached with Lazio,” Alberti told the Corriere della Sera.

“Therefore, if everything will be settled out, ‘Maurito’ will continue playing in Rome.”

Zarate has made 30 apperances in all competitions so far this season, netting 11 goals.
