Italian Serie A side Lazio has shown keen interest in acquiring the services of one-cap Super Eagles midfielder Fisayo Dele-Bashiru, who currently plays for Turkish club Hatayaspor.
With seven goals and six assists in 35 appearances for his team this season, the former Manchester City player has been in decent form for the Turkish team.
Hatayspor is eager to sell the player but will demand roughly €10 million from any team interested in signing the gifted player, according to Turkish news source Sports Digitale.
The 23-year-old midfielder, who is also capable of playing in central midfield, has previously been linked to AC Milan and PSV Eindhoven and now Lazio has entered the competition.
According to reports, Igor Tudor, the coach of Lazio, is eager to finalize the transaction before the team’s preseason competition begins since he has selected the Nigerian as the cornerstone of the team’s attack for the upcoming campaign.
The deal to sign Fisayo, who only moved to Hatayspor from Sheffield Wednesday last summer, also includes a sell-on provision that may raise the transfer costs to €20 million in the future.
