Lazio took a risk recruiting Ratkov, but the investment failed to deliver the expected results. Lazio spent 13 million euros to sign him at the time, but the player never made much of an impact at Formello after joining.

Speaking about Ratkov's performance, Lazio sporting director Fabiani was candid: "If I said I was satisfied, I would be lying."

Fabiani then revealed details of the transfer. He stated that several clubs were interested in Ratkov at the time, and Lazio eventually accepted a loan offer from Levante.

"Several clubs were interested in him previously, and then we received an offer from Levante. We had to respect the player's own choice."

According to details revealed by Fabiani, Ratkov's loan fee was 1 million euros, and the contract also included a bonus clause tied to goals scored. If he scored 12 goals, Lazio would receive an additional 1 million euros; if he ultimately scored 15 goals and made 20 appearances, a purchase option worth 14 million euros in the contract would be triggered.
