Lazio Rome / Inter Milan

After the relegation of the Blues , Zárate left England in the direction of Lazio Rome in the Italian Serie A , where he was hired again, initially on loan, with the later option of a permanent commitment. After a successful loan - Zárate scored 13 league goals, among others - Lazio drew this option and signed the striker for 20 million euros. At Lazio, Zárate received a contract until 2014 with an annual salary of around two million euros. In his second season with the Romans, the striker was only able to score three league goals, and in his third season nine.

In total, he scored only three goals for the Nerazzurri in 31 competitive appearances .

After the end of the loan to Inter, Zárate returned to Lazio for the 2012/13 season. As early as November 2012 it was announced that Zárate would leave Lazio in January 2013 because he was no longer part of the starting line-up, but was the best paid player for the Romans.
