Lazio extend Romano Floriani Mussolini contract until 2031

Lazio have extended the contract of defender Romano Floriani Mussolini until 30 June 2031, the club officially announced on 10 November.

The 23-year-old right-back came through Lazio’s academy and spent the early stages of his professional career gaining experience away from the club. He had loan spells with Pescara, Juve Stabia and Cremonese, playing in Serie C, Serie B and Serie A.

Floriani Mussolini returned to Lazio in the summer of 2025 and gradually began to establish himself around the first team. His role has increased during the current season, with an injury to Marusic creating further opportunities in the starting line-up.

His performances have also earned the confidence of head coach Gennaro Gattuso. Floriani Mussolini marked his progress by scoring his first Serie A goal in Lazio’s match against Sassuolo.

The new agreement keeps him at Lazio until June 30, 2031.

Speaking after the renewal, Floriani Mussolini said: “I am incredibly proud to continue wearing this jersey and fighting for these colors. This also gives me more motivation to always give my all. Forza, Lazio!”
