Lazio announce signing of talented Juventus midfielder

The Roman club has signed the player on a one-year loan. In the summer of 2024, AS Roma will be obliged to complete the transfer of the player if he participates in a certain number of matches.
The 21-year-old Rovella had been with Juventus since January 2021. He transferred to the Turin club from Genoa for a transfer fee of 26 million euros. He has played only three matches for the Turin club, without scoring any goals or providing any assists. He has previously been on loan at Genoa and Monza.
