Official: Lazio Omit Two Defenders From Serie A Squad List

Lazio have handed the Lega Serie A their squad list for the 2026/27 campaign, and it doesn’t include either Patric or Luca Pellegrini.

The Rules

With the summer transfer window now behind us, Serie A clubs were asked to confirm their squads for the new campaign. Once these lists are registered, they must remain virtually intact until the market reopens in January, with only two changes allowed.

The Categories

Each Serie A club is allowed to pick a maximum of 25 senior players (above the age of 22), plus an unlimited number of players aged 22 and below. The senior list is divided into three categories: Four spots reserved for the club’s academy products, another four spots for the products of any Italian academy, and 17 free spots.

Lazio Drop Romagnoli, Patric & Pellegrini

On Wednesday evening, Lazio published their squad on the club’s official website. The list obviously included their six new signings, Alfonso Pedraza, Danilho Doekhi, Davide Frattesi, Josip Sutalo, Andrea Pinamonti, and Albert Gudmundsson. On the other hand, Patric and Pellegrini were left out, in addition to Alessio Romagnoli, who was given the green light to fly to Qatar and finally sign for Al-Sadd.

Why Patric Was Left Out

The Spaniard is Lazio’s longest-serving player in the current team, but his most recent campaigns have been plagued by injuries, and this summer, he missed the entire pre-season. It appears that the 32-year-old’s condition is considered so severe that he isn’t expected to take part in the action any time soon.

Why Luca Pellegrini Was Excluded

With Pedraza and Nuno Tavares vying for a starting role at left-back, Pellegrini can be deemed surplus to requirements. While his current injury isn’t serious, it certainly didn’t help his case. The 27-year-old reportedly has suitors in Turkiye, so it remains to be seen if he can seal a move before the market closes on Friday.
