The Citizens are looking at the 23-year-old player as a potential replacement for the injured Rodri. City is preparing an offer of around 40 million euros for the midfielder, who made his debut for the Italy national team in November.

This season, Rovella is playing for Lazio on a two-year loan deal with an obligatory purchase option. The Eagles are willing to pay 17 million euros to secure Rovella's full transfer from Juventus.
