Lazio in touch with Nedved
Saturday 20 June, 2009

Lazio President Claudio Lotito met Mino Raiola, the agent of Pavel Nedved, with a view to a move last night.

The 36-year-old winger left Juventus at the end of the season and his future is still very much in the air.

Initially he said he was looking forward to retirement, but his agent clearly has other ideas.

Lotito met Raiola at Giannino, a restaurant in Milan, where he made Lazio's interest in Nedved concrete.

“It's true, I saw Lotito. We will need to wait 10 or 15 days. Pavel is on holiday. He is resting. We will decide when he returns,” Raiola said.

New Lazio Coach Davide Ballardini is said to have given his encouragement to any move for Nedved.

Lazio first bought Nedved in 1996, signing him as a 24-year-old from Sparta Prague.

He scored 33 goals in 138 appearances for the Biancocelesti, guiding them to the Scudetto in 2000.
