Newcastle star Thauvin chased by Lazio, Zenit!

Lazio may need to hurry up if they want to secure Florian Thauvin's services. 

With numerous reports that Inter are edging closer to Antono Candreva, Napoli are also rumoured to be ready with another offer, the Aquile will need a replacement. The Corrriere dello Sport lists both teams in its latest report, and also mentions that Chelsea are waiting in the wings. 

The 23-year-old Thauvin belongs to Newcastle, but is also being pursued by Zenit Saint Petersburg, which may force Lazio to get a move on. 

Thauvin netted twice on loan to Marseille last season, having never scored a Premier League goal in his short stay at Saint James' Park. 

His best season came in 2013/2014, when he netted eight Ligue 1 goals, though he has often been dogged by accusations of inconsistency. 

Newcastle paid Marseille €18.4 million to secure the Frenchman, and will struggle to keep him in the Championship.
