Lazio said their financial department falsely billed two payments worth €11 million to Sporting Lisbon for Pedro Neto instead of Sporting Braga because they were ” deceived by the similar names of the clubs’ similar names.”
Despite the fact that the forward never played for the Portuguese club, two fees in relation to the Portuguese player were made to “Sporting Lisbona” in July 2018 and March 2019, publicly accessible online, according to the Italian club’s accounts.
Almost exactly a month after the winger’s loan from Braga was made permanent, Lazio sold Neto to Wolves for a record £ 18m in July 2019.
