Lazio president Claudio Lotito is ready to sell Goran Pandev and Cristian Ledesma in January.
"When the market opens again and someone makes me a convincing proposal in the interests of Lazio and the player, we will evaluate it and if there are the right conditions we will find a solution," Lotito said.
"They are decisions for the Coach to make. We have 21 places like all the other teams and a Coach who makes the decisions. I don't make the technical decisions.
"I have hired a trainer with professionalism, ability, a work ethic, and for that reason all the choices made by Ballardini are shared by the club. The rest is chatter."
