Lazio have no intention of making Rolando Bianchi's move to the Stadio Olimpico permanent, according to reports in Italy.
The 25-year-old striker joined Lazio on loan from Manchester City in January, but has not impressed enough to earn himself a transfer.
Bianchi scored four goals in 15 appearances for the Aquilotti, yet failed to replicate the form he showed at Reggina last season.
The former Italy Under-21 international attracted the attention of some of Italy and Europe's biggest clubs in 2007 after netting 19 times for the Calabrians.
Lazio's right to buy the hitman expires on June 15, at which time, if no offer is forthcoming, he will return to Manchester.
However, Bianchi is unlikely to remain in England for long, with German side Wolfsburg believed to be interested in his signature.
Fellow Italians Andrea Barzagli and Cristian Zaccardo have already joined the Bundesliga team in recent weeks.
