Lazio are reportedly at the head of the queue to sign Graziano Pelle should Southampton decide to sell the striker this summer.

Lazio have reportedly expressed an interest in signing out-of-favour Southampton striker Graziano Pelle this summer.

Pelle, 31, has just one year left on his current contract and was recently left out of Ronald Koeman's matchday squad having failed to impress the Dutchman in training.

Koeman has previously hinted that Pelle's being over the age of 30 made his long-term future at St Mary's unsure, and several clubs have been alerted to the Italy international's possible availability.

According to the Southern Daily Echo, Serie A side Lazio have joined the queue and may be favourite to snare the striker, who has scored 22 Premier League goals in two seasons at Southampton.
