Lazio are pushing to open new contract talks with Keita Balde Diao.

The striker, for many, is the best young player in Serie A and Lazio chief Igli Tare is eager to secure him to a new deal.

However, Il Tempo says Keita has fielded interest from Liverpool, Atletico Madrid and Benfica in recent weeks.

Lazio have slapped a €30 million price-tag on Keita, hoping to turn off suitors.

But the striker could yet push for a move after a season of upheaval at Lazio.
