An Insight into Lazovic's Career and Growth

The Serbian left Winger was born in 1990. He enrolled in a football academy named Borak Cacak at the young age of six. He had an innate talent for football. His skills were noticed outside the academy when he started playing for his junior football team.

In February 2009, Lazovic trained with Tottenham FC for a couple of days and was rumored to be transferred to Tottenham when he was about 18 years old. 

Unfortunately, Lazovic's contract for Tottenham was never signed, but a Red Star Belgrade club took him in. He couldn't play in the earlier stages of his time in Belgrade due to an injury but later on, went to play an important role in Red Star's UEFA Europa Qualifying Campaign.

His notable work in his football career is that he played alongside Nikola Zigic, a famous attacker.

Lazovic scored a goal against Red Star's rival Partizan, which Red Star won 2–0. That momentum led the Red Star to win the 2012 Serbian Cup Finals. 

Although the club suffered some internal feuds and instability, Lazovic still went on to play in the club. In an unfortunate turn of events, Lazovic was benched due to a knee injury in a match against Partizan. 

His talent and play won him an award for the Best young player in the Serbian SuperLiga in 2010. He became the Red Star Belgrade's Captain in 2014. In his last season with the team, he became the top scorer within the division. 

Lazovic would go on to sign a multi-year contract with Genoa. Lazovic scored his first goal in the club on December 16, 2016. The match was only 62 minutes long as it was a continuation match. The previous game was abandoned due to an unusual hailstorm. His team was also named the team of the week in the series A league he played in. Later after his contract expired, Lazovic signed a contract with Hellas Verona, where he currently plays. 

Lazovic's most significant losses include playing against FK Vojvodina Novi Sad in 2008 for the SuperLiga cup for Cacak FC. His team went 5-0 against the formidable team. His second loss was against InterMilan, going 5-0 in 2018 playing for Genoa. Although there were games where his team went 5-0, these two were devastating, for he played the full 90 minutes.

The focus was that Verona sought a player from Marseille, Kevin Strootman. Kevin Strootman was on loan for two seasons for Genoa and was unwilling to give up his role as a midfielder with high pay. As the negotiation issues proceeded, the transfer of Lazovic's had to wait. Kevin Strootman is unwilling to give up his income of more than 6 million dollars, holding back the transfer of Lazovic.
