Lazio head coach Gennaro Gattuso will reportedly make a trio of changes to his starting lineup when they host Genoa on Sunday, including two compulsory ones.
The Biancocelesti began their Serie A campaign with an away victory in Bologna thanks to Davide Frattesi's solitary strike. The Italian midfielder came off the bench to replace the injured Fisayo Dele-Bashiru. The manager also had to make another compulsory change during the match, bring in Romano Floriani Mussolini for Adam Marusic.
With both players expected to remain on the sidelines for at least 20 days, Frattesi and Floriani Mussolini will be making their first starts of the season. The Inter Milan loanee will join Kenneth Taylor and Nicolo in the midfield trio, while Floriani Mussolini will slot in at right-back, with the rest of the defence remaining intact with Danilo Doekhi, Oliver Provstgaard, and Alfonso Pedraza.
In attack, Sky Sport Italia and La Lazio Siamo Noi expect a third change to take place, with Gustav Isaksen dropping Matteo Cancellieri to the bench. The Dane missed the entire pre-season while recovering from groin surgery, but made his return in the second half at the Renato Dall'Ara and was considered an upgrade on his Italian teammate.

Cagliari are reportedly searching the market for a new right wing-back, as Lazio's Romano Floriani Mussolini emerges as a potential solution.
The 23-year-old is a Lazio youth product who rose to prominence following his Serie B exploits at Juve Stabia in 2024/25. Last season, the Roma native had his first Serie A experience at Cremonese, but he couldn't lock down a starting role. Following their relegation, the Lombardians opted against exercising their option to buy the player, who rejoined the Biancocelesti's ranks.
This may have been a blessing in disguise for Floriani Mussolini, who is now enjoying an impressive pre-season as part of Gennaro Gattuso's camp and is expected to play his football in Italy's top flight once more.
According to Sky Sport Italia journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, Cagliari have added Floriani Mussolini to their wing-back shortlist. Last season, the Isolani had Marco Palestra patrolling their right flank. The youngster cemented himself as one of the best players in Serie A and has since returned to Atalanta, who subsequently sold him to Chelsea for €55 million
Therefore, the Rossoblu need a new right-back/right wing-back, and Floriani Mussolini has been targeted, although he's not the only man on their shortlist. Di Marzio also reveals that the club is close to acquiring Atalanta's Daniel Maldini, who spent the second half of the previous campaign on loan at Lazio.

Fiorentina are reportedly interested in Lazio right-back Manuel Lazzari, who appears to be heading out of the club.
The Valdangno native has been a protagonist at the Italian capital club since making the transfer from SPAL in the summer of 2019. However, he has now become surplus to requirements at Gennaro Gattuso’s court. The new Lazio coach plans to integrate Romano Floriani Mussolini, who will start as Adam Marusic’s understudy, with the opportunity to earn a starting role.
On the other hand, Lazzari’s contract will expire in June 2027, so his time at Formello is destined to end this summer. In recent weeks, he has been linked with the newly promoted Monza, while some suggested Sassuolo could renew their interest in his services. Nevertheless, his next destination might just be Florence.
According to Fiorentinauno.com, new Fiorentina manager Fabio Grosso has identified Lazzari as a player he’d like to add to his squad, especially if the coveted Dodo is sold this summer. The Viola would like to replace the Brazilian with a young profile, while ideally pairing him with an experienced right-back.
The 32-year-old could be a useful veteran for the Tuscans thanks to his ability to play as a full-back in a back-four and a wing-back in a three-man backline.
