Report: Yilmaz set for Lazio move

4 July 2012 17:30

Lazio appear to have won the race to sign in-demand Trabzonspor forward Burak Yilmaz.

According to reports in Corriere dello Sport, Lazio president Claudio Lotito is expected to fly out to Turkey to finalise a deal after authorising the payment of an initial five million euros for the 26-year-old, with another 1.8 million expected to follow in October.

Newly appointed Lazio coach Vladimir Petkovic is said to be a keen admirer of Burak, who scored 19 goals in 30 appearances for his club in the Turkish Super Lig last season.

With the terms of a contract already agreed with the player, the Rome club are confident that the Turkey international will boost their striking options ahead of the new Serie A season.

If the deal goes ahead, Lazio will have beaten Borussia Dortmund and several English Premier League clubs to Burak's signature.
