Some Lazio rumours:
The club are interested in Robin van Persie and Fabio Borini
I really hope Borini gets a different offer. He's maybe not quite Roma quality but I really like him and don't want to see him choose Lazio.
Van Persie is in Roma right now. You never know as it may just be vacation but Lazio will look for a CF and does have at least the CL playoff spot to entice.
Rumors, that also may be completely unfounded, were that Van Persie is looking for a 4 year deal at €5m per year (Italian after tax amount).
If so, that's around €35m just on salary and could really backfire for Lazio in completely handcuffing them if he has injuries.
About Doumbia: not certain he'll be sold and have heard nothing but just my personal suspicion. The whole situation was unfortunate since he was bought this winter and then injured his back immediately after at AFCON and never was fully healthy.
However, that really didn't endear him to a lot of fans and I think management would certainly sell him to buy a CF they think is an upgrade but also may do so with someone they think is fairly equal just to avoid a scenario where he's off to a bad start and the fans really turn on him.
It's too bad as he looked very good in the matches he was healthy. Problem was that there were only three of them at the end of the season.
Not sure if the back problem is the type that may linger but Doumbia has a lot more quality than some credit.

I was thinking that about Borini, with his Roma ties... But selfishly, I want him to go to the club that stumps up the most cash, though I can't imagine anyone will pay us the £14mm Sunderland was willing to last year...
I didn't follow Doumbia's time at Roma, but was surprised to read he struggled, though injuries may explain it... Ive always thought he was quality and was surprised he didn't get transferred out of Russia sooner (there were some rumors that he was actually older than he claimed).. A couple of seasons ago, I'd have picked him over Bony
