Lazio is facing frustration in their push to sign Manchester City captain David Silva.

Corriere dello Sport says Silva is keeping Lazio waiting as he considers an offer from Qatar.

The most likely rival for the Aquile is Xavi's Al-Sadd.

The 34-year-old is leaving Manchester City as a free agent now their Champions League campaign is over.

Lazio have offered Silva a two-year contract worth €4m-a-season.
