Lazio are reportedly targeting Fernando Llorente and Mauricio Isla for expected new Coach Marcelo Bielsa.
The Argentinian tactician is very close to agreeing to take over the Biancocelesti, though there are still a few hurdles to be overcome.
Assuming that Bielsa does eventually take over, Gazzetta dello Sport reports that the Aquile will target two of his former players.
Mauricio Isla was a crucial part of Bielsa’s 3-3-1-3 shape during his time in charge of the Chilean national team, and is surplus to requirements at Juventus.

Mauricio Isla was a crucial part of Bielsa’s 3-3-1-3 shape during his time in charge of the Chilean national team, and is surplus to requirements at Juventus.
The wing-back spent last season on loan at Marseille, but the French club cannot afford to buy him outright.
In addition, Fernando Llorente – with whom Bielsa worked at Athletic Club – has made no secret of his desire to return to Italy, having endured a frustrating season at Sevilla after moving from Juve.
The Spaniard would fill a void in the Lazio attack, with Miroslav Klose having left the club at the end of last season.
