Petkovic wants Krasic at Lazio
By Football Italia staff
New Lazio Coach Vladimir Petkovic is reportedly interested in bringing Juventus’ forgotten winger Milos Krasic to the capital.
After a good impression in 2010-11, Krasic struggled in his second season in Turin under Coach Antonio Conte and is set to leave the Bianconeri this summer having only played 20 minutes for them since mid-October 2011.
Lazio were reportedly on the verge of bringing the Serbian star to the Olimpico in January on a loan deal, only for the player’s agent to indicate that Krasic wasn’t interested.
Despite a change in Coach since then, the Aquile are reportedly trying to revive hopes of a deal this summer, with new boss Petkovic pushing for the move, according to the Corriere dello Sport.
The winger is rated at €6.5m, which is €8.5m less than Juve paid for him two years ago, whilst his contract expires in 2014.
Krasic has previously also been linked with Fenerbahce, Sevilla, Zenit St Petersburg, Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea and Marseille.

Juventus to talk Verratti
By Football Italia staff
Juventus officials will reportedly resume talks with the agent of Pescara teenager Marco Verratti on Thursday.
The Under-21 international, still just 19, is a known transfer target for the champions but agreeing a deal is proving to be problematic.
Juve have made an €8m offer for the central midfielder, but the newly promoted outfit want €12m for his signature.
Club officials are set to speak with Domenico Di Campli at some stage tomorrow for an evaluation of the situation.
Verratti is also of interest to clubs such as Inter, Genoa, Roma and Napoli, but the player is keen to sign for the Turin giants.
However, Pescara and Verratti are pushing for any deal to include the option for them to stay together for the 2012-13 campaign.
Pescara will be playing in Serie A next term after winning the Serie B title under the guidance of boss Zdenek Zeman. He has now joined Roma.

Kolarov hints at frustration
By Football Italia staff
Reportedly tracked by Inter and Juventus, Aleksandar Kolarov has given the strongest indication yet that he could leave Manchester City this summer.
Despite playing a part in the English side’s Premier League success, the 26-year-old Serbian, who moved to the Etihad from Lazio in 2010, has admitted that he has been frustrated by a lack of playing time.
The left-back appeared only 12 times in the League last term under Roberto Mancini and has hinted that a departure is on the cards.
“Here I am very happy, but my goal is to play more. I’ve spoken to Mancini,” he reportedly told English journalists.
“My future? I am in contact with my agent, I will talk to him shortly.”
Both Juve and Inter have been linked with the free-kick specialist, who is valued at €12m.
