The 27-year-old joined City from Shakhtar Donetsk for £8million last summer, but is eager to leave the club this month.
Elano said: “I would not have any problem playing in Italy. And Lazio are a very good team. I cannot say more, I have to speak to Manchester City. I will do it soon, then decide what to do.
“I have heard it said that Lazio would be interested. I am pleased that such a big club is tracking me.”
