Celtic beat Lazio on Thursday night.

Celtic stunned Lazio in the Europa League with a 2-1 win in Glasgow.

Christophe Julien’s late winner sealed an impressive fightback for Celtic.

The result could be costly for manager Simone Inzaghi.

Tuttomercatoweb report Lazio are considering a change, with Gennaro Gattuso touted as a replacement.

Lazio reportedly ‘think strongly’ of Gattuso and have already made contact.

They are reportedly not ready to fire Inzaghi just yet, but the performance against Celtic obviously hasn’t helped.

Lazio lost their previous away game 2-1 at Cluj.

In Serie A, Lazio are seventh with three wins from eight games.

It doesn’t look like Lazio will make a managerial change before the next Celtic game on November 11, but if they did, appointing Gattuso would add an extra edge to the game.

He used to play for rivals Rangers and retains an affection for the club.

Lazio have three games before they play Celtic, facing Fiorentina, Torino and AC Milan. Poor results could see a change.
