Andreas Pereira has been at the centre of a lot of transfer talk, especially in the last couple of days. Lazio have been in talks with Manchester United, in the last few days, about the prospect of signing Andreas Pereira. It has now been confirmed by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano that Andreas Pereira is moving to Lazio for a season-long deal with an option to buy.
It was earlier reported that Pereira was close to having a medical in the next few days to complete his move to Lazio. Even Lazio’s sporting director and their manager Simeone Inzaghi have confirmed that Pereira would be joining them shortly. Inzaghi has been in talks with the Brazilian midfielder and is impressed by his qualities and what he brings to the table.
Fabrizio Romano has now confirmed about Pereira’s loan deal to Lazio for a season. Andreas Pereira’s wages will be shared amongst both United and Lazio and the latter will have an option to buy Pereira at the end of the season at €27m. If this deal works for both Lazio and Pereira, the Brazilian can part ways with the Red Devils.

Andreas Pereira is not in Solskjaer’s plans and Manchester United were desperate to offload the Brazilian, thus this deal makes sense for the Red Devils.
