Tuttomercato reports that Venezia is interested in acquiring Gabriele Artistico from Lazio. Artistico is a center-forward born in 2002 who is owned by Lazio. The player was loaned to Spezia in the summer with a buyout option of three million euros. Venezia's manager, Stroppa, admires the attacker and would like him to compete with Adorante in Serie A. The situation is evolving, as Spezia is reportedly considering exercising the purchase option despite its probable relegation. Concurrently, Lazio's president, Claudio Lotito, is said to be considering paying 500,000 euros to retain Artistico in his squad. Venezia is observing and awaiting developments.
