Man United and Lazio transfer battle for midfield star: Agent negotiates bargain fee
LAZIO are set to rival Manchester United for Wesley Sneijder, according to reports.
Wesley Sneijder is being linked with Lazio and Manchester United
Sneijder is a long-term target for United and reports in Holland today say a move is back on the cards.
Dutch website TurksVoetbal.net claim incoming United boss Jose Mourinho is keen on a reunion with the former Inter Milan midfielder.
And it is said he wants to add the Dutch international's experience to the dressing room with long-serving midfielder Lucas Biglia linked with a move away.
Lazio are faced with one obstacle though - Sneijder's £3.4m-a-year wage - which the Italian club may struggle to match given Turkey's low rates of income tax.
