The agent of Keita Balde has denied his client has agreed terms with Juventus over a summer move and insists Lazio still haven’t offered the forward a new deal.
Lazio have already agreed a fee for the Senegal international with AC Milan but there have been claims Keita is delaying a possible move because of interest from Juventus.
However, Keita’s agent, Roberto Calenda, has denied reaching personal terms with the Serie A champions and also hit out at the Lazio board for hiding information from the 22-year-old regarding his future.
“[Lazio director Igli] Tar talks about my non-existent agreement with other clubs and publicly waves around fairy-tale renewals,” he wrote on his official Twitter account.
“However, seeing as now he is also talking about renewals worthy of a top player or offers from three big clubs, perhaps it’s time he informs us of this too. We remain, as ever, waiting for Lazio.”
The youngster has just enjoyed his best ever campaign as a professional and he would be a valuable pick up for Milan as they continue their lightening start to the transfer window that has already seen them spend in excess of €60m (£52.9m) on four players this summer.
Keita scored six more goals in Serie A last season (16) than he had managed in his previous three campaigns combined (10).
