Super Eagles midfielder, Fisayo Dele-Bashiru, has joined Lazio Football Club of Italy on loan.
Lazio confirmed the signing of Dele-Bashiru via their official website on Saturday.
“SS Lazio announces that it has acquired on a temporary basis with an obligation to buy the rights to the sporting performances of the footballer, Oluwafisayo Faruq Dele-Bashiru from Atakaş Hatayspor FK,” the Serie A club said.
The Nigerian international arrived in Rome on Friday ahead of his medical to enable him complete his transfer to Lazio.
