Lazio and Milan are in the running for Portugal international Gelson Martins, one of several Sporting CP players to terminate his contract.
The 23-year-old right-sided winger spent his entire career at Sporting, but is leaving as a free agent along with many of his teammates.
They were attacked by masked thugs in the training ground and sued the club to rescind the contracts, claiming the President actively encouraged the aggression.
Milan, Benfica, Arsenal and other Premier League sides have already shown interest, but Lazio are joining in.

According to Il Messaggero newspaper, the Aquile could have the upper hand thanks to their good rapport with agent Jorge Mendes.
Gelson Martins contributed 13 goals and 13 assists in 52 competitive games this season.
