Used more or less sporadically over the course of the first half of the season by Bruno Lage at Wolverhampton Wanderers, Leander Dendoncker ended up voicing his displeasure about his situation at Molineux back in February.
Blaming his versatility, the 27-year-old has since managed to play a bit more regularly, scoring against Tottenham in a 2-0 win and picking up an assist against Leicester the week after, but that doesn’t mean his long-term future is with the Premier League side.
We say this because Lazio are said to be interested in the Wolves man, with Corriere dello Sport giving a tidbit of information on the subject.
Explaining that Maurizio Sarri and Lazio are ‘always hunting’ for a new regista, who would end up being Lucas Leiva’s successor in the role, it’s made clear that Dendoncker is being looked at.
After all, the Belgian’s contract with Wolves ends in 2023, making this summer an ideal time to secure a transfer for him, and it’s made clear that the option to sign him ‘is still valid’.
One to keep an eye on, especially if the Premier League club make no attempt to renew their player, who has managed to feature 149 times for the Molineux side since his arrival from Anderlecht, scoring 11 goals and picking up four assists along the way.
