The 23-year-old is a player who the Nerazzurri see as an ideal replacement for Hakan Calhanoglu.
It is still uncertain whether Calhanoglu will stay or go. However, the strong interest from Galatasaray means that the Nerazzurri are bracing themselves for the possibility of having to replace him.
And Rovella is a player who would offer a strong like-for-like replacement. Therefore, he would be the priority target in the event that Calhanoglu departs.

Convincing Lazio to part ways with Nicolo Rovella will not be easy, however.
The Italian international has a release clause in his contract worth around €50 million. And so far, the Biancocelesti have shown no sign of wavering in expecting that full amount.

Inter, for their part, have put a bid of €35 million on the table, reports SportItalia.
And in addition, the broadcaster report, the Nerazzurri have also included Kristjan Asllani in the offer.
The Albanian would be offered on loan, with a purchase option that could become an obligation under certain conditions.
According to SportItalia, however, Lazio have rejected this bid. They still only want the release clause for Rovella.
