According to Italian media outlet La Gazzetta dello Sport, Serie A side Lazio are interested in signing Chelsea duo Olivier Giroud and Pedro.

Lazio were interested in signing Giroud during the January transfer window and have now added Pedro to their transfer shortlist. Both players are set to leave Stamford Bridge, with the contract set to expire in the summer. Both players are free to discuss with Lazio over a potential summer transfer.

Pedro joined the Blues back in 2015 from Barcelona for £19million on a four-year deal while Giroud joined Chelsea from Arsenal in January 2018 for £18 million.

Meanwhile, Pedro recently revealed how the coronavirus pandemic has affected his family life. “It’s hard not to be seeing your children, your parents, your siblings, not having them close by at a complicated, difficult time for us all,” Pedro told Chelsea’s official website.

“We are in permanent contact on the phone, keeping in touch about what we are up to in isolation and trying to be as close as possible.”
