Felipe Anderson might choose to stay at Lazio until the end of the season, which could hand Aston Villa a blow in

his pursuit.

Fabrizio Romano via Give Me Sport believes Felipe Anderson might not leave Lazio in January despite entering

the final six months of his deal. The Brazilian’s decision could be a blow to Aston Villa’s chances of signing the

attacker this month.

Felipe Anderson to stay at Lazio?

Some might remember Felipe Anderson for his ill-fated time at West Ham, where he could not click despite the

club giving him many chances to do so. A return to Italy favoured the 30-year-old as he has found his best

version under Maurizio Sarri at Lazio.

His current deal ends in the summer, which has already alerted many teams, particularly from the Premier

League.

Tottenham first considered a move. But since then, a host of other sides have come into the picture. Fabrizio

Romano points towards Juventus’s interest, as they would like to sign him on a free transfer.

Romano, however, denied there were negotiations ongoing with Aston Villa, although Unai Emery’s side and

Fulham have been linked with the Brazilian attacker. The big issue for Anderson with his contract extension at Lazio is the salary package offered by the Italian side. Anderson is currently on a £47,000-a-week deal.
