The agent of Lazio goalkeeper Albano Bizzarri has admitted that his client is no closer to leaving the Roman club despite interest in his services.

Matteo Materazzi said that a recent deal to join Genoa on loan has collapsed and, although there is other interest, a deal would not now be completed until the end of the window, if at all.

"There was an important offer from Genoa a few weeks ago, but nothing could be agreed because Lazio were struggling to find a new reserve goalkeeper," Materazzi told Radio Sei.

"Now Genoa no longer have the same need. I can exclude them as an option, their President Enrico Preziosi has said that as well.

"Other sides have come forward, but everything is on stand-by right now. We're close to the start of the season so, if anything happens, it will take place in the last week of the window."

Bizzarri joined Lazio in 2009 from Catania.
