After failing to carve himself space in Turin, the midfielder signed for Lazio in the summer of 2023 on a two-year loan deal with an obligation to buy in June 2025.

After cementing himself as one of the finest deep-lying playmakers in Serie A, the Biancocelesti will be more than happy to fulfill this unconditional obligation and buy Rovella for €17 million. This price can be considered a bargain when considering the player’s current value and his importance for the club’s cause.
€70M Release Clause
According to Il Corriere dello Sport (via Calciomercato), Lazio and Rovella already have an accord for the future. After triggering the buy clause, the two parties will pen a five-year contract that will include a release clause worth €50 million.
