Lazio have something new to worry about as Fisayo Dele-Bashiru suffered a knock in training during his stay with the Nigerian national team.

New Headache for Lazio

The Biancocelesti are already concerned with the condition of Boulaye Dia who contracted malaria. The club is working on bringing the Senegalese striker back to Rome as soon as possible so they can monitor his condition. And while Dele-Bashiru was thrown as one of the names who could replace the 28-year-old in the attacking-midfield role, Lazio received another unpleasant piece of news from Africa.

Fisayo Dele-Bashiru Picks Up Slight Knock

According to La Lazio Siamo Noi, the former Man City U23 starlet sustained a slight knock in training, which is why Nigeria coach Augustine Eguavoen preferred to keep him on the bench for the entire match against Benin on Thursday.

Nigeria to Avoid Risks

The source is also expecting the manager to adopt the same cautious approach for Monday’s home fixture against Rwanda. As the report notes, the Super Eagles have already booked their place in the African Cup of Nations, so they don’t need to take any risks with Dele-Bashiru. The midfielder will thus travel with the squad, but should remain in the dugout.

Lazio Crossing their Fingers

For their part, Lazio will anxiously await the player’s return to the Italian capital so they can assess his condition. They’ll be hoping that the medical tests rule out any injuries so they can have the midfielder back at Marco Baroni’s disposal for next weekend’s clash against Bologna.
