According to reports from England, Southampton is interested in Lorenzo Pirola. The Italian defender is also the subject of significant attention from his home country, with several Serie A clubs, including Milan, monitoring the 23-year-old. There is a general reluctance among Italian teams to allow a promising compatriot to leave the league. Juventus considers Pirola a high-priority target and appears to be in the primary position to submit a proposal. It is believed that a bid from Juventus for the Greece-based player would likely not be more than €20-25 million, a sum considered a suitable basis for starting negotiations. Pirola joined Olympiacos Piraeus in July 2024 and his contract is valid until June 2028. In the 2025/2026 Super League 1 season, he has made 12 appearances and provided one assist. The centre-back has also accumulated 26 caps and scored 3 goals for the Italy U21 national team. His current Transfermarkt market value is €9.00m. In December 2025, it was reported that Olympiacos' demands for a potential transfer to Roma were over €15 million.
