Lazio: Scenario for Mandas to be exchanged with Torino's Israel

Christos Mandas, Lazio's goalkeeper, is at the center of a potential transfer scenario involving Torino. The Greek player has not managed to secure a starting position in the Lazio lineup under Maurizio Sarri and wishes to leave to ensure more playing opportunities. According to Sky Italia, Lazio and Torino are considering a swap deal between Mandas and Franco Israel, Torino's goalkeeper. This could offer a solution for both teams, as Lazio would strengthen their position with an experienced goalkeeper, while Mandas would have the opportunity to play for a team that needs him. An additional advantage for Mandas, should the transfer be completed, is the possibility of working with Marco Baroni again. Baroni had given Mandas opportunities during his previous tenure at Lazio and trusted him, which could lead to increased playing time for the young goalkeeper. This season has not been easy for Mandas, as he has made only one appearance for Lazio, in a Coppa Italia match against Milan, which his team won 1-0. The lack of playing opportunities is the main reason for his desire to leave and seek a new challenge in his career.
