Maurizio Sarri to Stay at Lazio Despite Transfer Ban Blow
Lazio have officially informed head coach Maurizio Sarri of the club’s serious financial constraints, confirming the extent of the transfer restrictions that currently plague the Roman side.
The Biancocelesti are facing a transfer ban that will prevent them from registering any new players until January 2026. The ban sparked immediate speculation over Sarri’s future — especially considering his recent return to the helm following the conclusion of the 2024/25 season.
However, the club moved quickly to address the rumors. In an official statement, Lazio revealed that club president Claudio Lotito and Sarri held “a long and detailed phone conversation” to discuss the club’s current situation and the road ahead.
While the transfer ban presents a significant hurdle, Sarri’s decision to stay signals a sense of continuity and resolve at the Stadio Olimpico. The experienced tactician appears ready to weather the storm with his squad and focus on building from within until the ban is lifted.
