Manolo Gabbiadini “is not for sale,” said the Southampton star’s agent, so Lazio fight Torino for Milan’s M’Baye Niang instead.
The Italy international’s name had been mentioned as a potential replacement for Keita Balde Diao, who is undergoing his medical with Monaco this evening.
“There has never been anything in it,” his representative told Mediaset Premium.
“As far as Southampton are concerned, Gabbiadini is not for sale.”
According to Sky Sport Italia, Lazio are instead turning to Milan for Niang, who is in advanced negotiations with Torino.
The Granata are so far refusing to meet the €18-20m asking price, one that Spartak Moscow had offered and the player rejected.
Niang is also of interest to Premier League clubs after his loan spell at Watford.
