Lazio won a crazy match in the Europa League, conquering Viktoria Plzen’s field with a piece of magic from Gustav Isaksen in the 97th minute.
A fantastic goal from the Biancocelesti winger that carries fundamental importance. The goal came with Lazio down to 9 men against 11 due to Rovella’s red card and then Gigot’s.
The team did not give up and secured the quarter-finals with a 2-1 victory.
Gustav Isaksen, who is growing more and more with Lazio, could have worn the Milan shirt.
Here is the transfer market backstory.
The first director to set his sights on Isaksen was Moncada, as reported by Calciomercato.com and relayed via PianetaMilan.it.
As head of the scouting department, he pointed him out to Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara. Later, Moncada tried to bring him to Milan right after his promotion to technical director. Isaksen was a Milan transfer target but not a primary one, considered as a Plan B to Samuel Chukwueze.
As you may remember, the negotiations for the Nigerian with Villarreal were long and uncertain. Nearly two seasons later, Isaksen is shining with Lazio, while Chukwueze is struggling to establish himself at Milan.
