Sunderland and West Ham are both interested in signing Ogenyi Onazi, according to reports in his native Nigeria.
The 23-year-old has risen through the ranks at Lazio since arriving in 2011 but has never fully established himself as a first-team regular.
Onazi has made a total of just 31 Serie A appearances over the course of the past two seasons and he could be set for a summer move away from the club.
And, according to Nigerian magazine Punch, both West Ham and Sunderland are keen on bringing him to the Premier League.
Onazi is also a target for Besiktas, who have reportedly made him one of their main targets for the window.
Lazio are open to selling the holding midfielder, a full Nigeria international, but want to raise around £7m for his sale.
