Italian club, Lazio, have set their eyes on Ajax Amsterdam's Spanish defender, Oleguer Presas.

The former Barcelona defender has a €3.5 million release clause in his contract and has been deemed surplus to requirements by new Ajax coach, Martin Jol.

Oleguer featured 24 times for the Dutch giants last season while making over 160 appearances for Barcelona between 2002 and 2008.

Real Mallorca and AEK Athens have also signaled their interest in the defender in recent months.
