The Performance Of Radu And Leiva Prove To Be Decisive In 2022, They May Get 1 Year Contract Extension


Three veteran Lazio players have proved decisive in helping turn the team around in 2022. Maurizio Sarri's side has had good results since the start of the year in Serie A.


Since the start of this year, Lazio has won four of their nine matches in Serie A, drawn three, and lost just two.  Currently, Maurizio Sarri's team is also chasing the European competition zone with 10 matches remaining to play and they have a chance to realize their target.


As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, the three veteran Biancoceleste players, Pedro, Lucas Leiva, and Stefan Radu proved decisive in improving the performance of his team, playing an important role in both the results and the improved form.


The 34-year-old Spanish winger Pedro has been a key figure since his arrival last summer.  He immediately secured a place in the starting line-up and has contributed nine goals and five assists in 36 appearances across all competitions this season.


While Leiva fell short under Simone Inzaghi last season, he has slowly started to turn things around under Sarri, rediscovering his best form while Danilo Cataldi is out injured.


While Radu's initial problem was tactics, according to Sarri he could only be played as a center-back, but he has learned that the Romanian veteran can be played as a full-back as well.


While Leiva and Radu's contracts are set to expire at the end of the season, the Romanian is sure to get a one-year contract extension and the same can now be offered to former Liverpool players as well.
