Lazio nearing move for Atalanta defender

Published on: 26 January 2016

Boukary Drame looks set to become the latest player to leave Atalanta this January, with the full-back reportedly close to joining Lazio.

The Biancocelesti have been looking to strengthen their defensive ranks, particularly on either side, and the Senegalese international has been identified as an ideal addition.

According to LaLazioSiamoNoi, the Nerazzurri full-back could sign for the Stadio Olimpico side as soon as this week on an initial loan deal that will see the Biancocelesti have the option to make the transfer permanent for €3 million.

With Alberto Grassi set to undergo a medical at Napoli on Tuesday and Fiorentina showing an interest in Luca Cigarini, as well as Maxi Moralez already departing at the beginning of the month, January has proven to be a difficult month for the Bergamo-based side.

Drame is the first choice left-back under Edy Reja and has featured on 13 occasions in Serie A so far this season.
