Hysaj's signing for Lazio is virtually official

There has yet to be an official statement released, but Hysaj is practically a Lazio player. After leaving Napoli, there are plenty of rumours with regards to him joining Lazio and he is training their like any other player. He is even in the squad list. 

The club, are also treating him in public as one of their players. Hysaj is posting pictures of him training in a Lazio shirt on social media and fans have noticed this. 

However, some fans are not happy with his arrival. A video of him singing 'Bella Ciao', an Italian anti-fascist song from the 19th century, has upset Lazio's ultras as they are far-right. 

In any case, we have to wait for Lazio to confirm the news in a formal statement to see how many years he has signed for. He can play in pre-season games as he does not have to be officially registered for those, but he does if he wants to take part in the 2021-22 Serie A campaign.
