  "account": "Lazio is actively pursuing free agents Mauro Icardi and Joselu, as they seek to bolster their attacking options. The Italian club has launched a new attempt to recruit 33-year-old Mauro Icardi, with his lawyer confirming that the Biancocelesti are evaluating the best plan for their client. Icardi, who has been unattached since leaving Galatasaray in June, expressed his desire to join a beautiful city and a strong club during an interview with Sky Sport Italia. However, Lazio insider Damiano Er Faina suggests that the Italian capital side is not seriously pursuing Icardi. Additionally, Lazio is one of several clubs tracking 36-year-old Joselu, who recently played for Real Madrid and helped the team win the Champions League and Euro 2024. Joselu has been a well-traveled striker, representing clubs such as Deportivo, Newcastle, and Espanyol throughout his career.",
