An Italian Serie A team has joined the auction to land PSV Eindhoven wingback Lee Young-pyo.

Tribalfootball.com recently reported that Lazio President Claudio Lotito is eyeing Lee as a direct replacement for Massimo Oddo, who is sought by Italian champion Juventus and AC Milan.

PSV has set a firm minimum price of five million euros for the 28-year-old.

Reports say AS Monaco of France, which broke off talks with PSV on Lee's transfer, is still interested in him, but the player is more interested in going to the English Premier League.

Olympique Marseille also recently rejected a trade offer from PSV of Lee for promising young Nigerian Taye Taiwo.

English teams Everton, Newcastle and Aston Villa have expressed interest in signing the talented defender.

Lee has a year remaining on his contract with the Dutch champion but has turned down a four-year extension. Dutch reports say he has studied English to prepare for a possible move to England.
