Lazio are in advanced pre-contract talks with Liverpool fullback Alberto Moreno.

The Independent says AS Roma had also been interested in taking the left back to Italy before sporting director Monchi departed in the wake of Eusebio di Francesco's sacking as manager.

Sevilla – which happens to be Moreno's last club as well - has just welcomed Monchi back this week.

Lazio have a good track record of reigniting the careers of former Liverpool players, with Luis Alberto and Lucas Leiva both flourishing in midfield roles since transferring to the Stadio Olimpico.
