Lazio head coach Marco Baroni has pinpointed areas where Nigerian midfielder Fisayo Dele-Bashiru needs to improve despite his impressive performances in Lazio\u2019s double victory over Napoli, Soccernet.ng<\/a> reports<\/strong>. <\/p>\n Dele-Bashiru played a full 90 minutes with energy and determination as Lazio secured a narrow 1-0 Serie A win against Napoli at the Diego Maradona Stadium on Sunday.<\/p>\n This victory followed a 3-1 triumph in the Coppa Italia just four days earlier, where the 24-year-old also featured prominently, playing 73 minutes.<\/p>\n On Sunday, Dele-Bashiru delivered a near-flawless display.<\/p>\n The midfielder completed 97% of his passes, succeeded with 100% of his dribbles and ground duels, and contributed significantly on the defensive end.<\/p>\n His efforts included two clearances, one blocked shot, and two interceptions, while losing possession just twice throughout the match.<\/p>\n According to Sofascore<\/a>, only three Lazio players earned a higher rating than the Nigerian international.<\/p>\n Baroni expressed satisfaction with Dele-Bashiru\u2019s progress but emphasised the need for further development to adapt fully to the demands of Italian football.<\/p>\n \u201cI am happy to work with these guys; they are good, I give them opportunities, and they work hard,\u201d Baroni said during a press conference, as reported by Noi Biancocelesti<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cFor us, there is only work. We have these players to carry forward in three competitions. I work on everyone, not just ten players, focusing on those who can grow.<\/p>\n \u201cDele-Bashiru has great potential, but it\u2019s clear he has to find the rhythm of the match, the mentality, the physicality, and the quality. It\u2019s not easy to transition from a different league to the Italian one, where mistakes are not tolerated.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n On loan from Turkish side Hatayspor, Dele-Bashiru has already contributed two goals and two assists in 11 appearances across all competitions for Lazio.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n
