Baroni Praises Dele-Bashiru’s Potential as Modern Midfielder
Europa League Victory Highlights Nigerian Star’s Impact
Lazio manager Marco Baroni has heaped praise on Nigerian international Fisayo Dele-Bashiru following his stellar performance in Lazio’s 3-0 Europa League triumph over Dynamo Kyiv. The 23-year-old midfielder played a crucial role in the win, scoring a goal and providing an assist, further solidifying his rising status in European football.
Dele-Bashiru’s contributions on Wednesday night underscored his potential as a dynamic force in midfield. His performance caught the attention of Baroni, who, during his post-match interview with Sky Sport Italia, expressed confidence in the player’s future development.
“When I say that he needs to be built, I mean that he must focus more on tactics and how to fill the game rather than only when the ball is at his feet,” said Baroni. “Once he gets that, Dele-Bashiru will become a great modern midfielder.”
The coach emphasized that while Dele-Bashiru has shown immense promise, refining his tactical understanding and overall game awareness would be key to unlocking his full potential. The young midfielder has made four appearances for Lazio this season, registering a goal and an assist, but Baroni believes there’s much more to come.
Rangers’ Cyriel Dessers Prepares for Tough Europa League Clash Against Malmo
Scottish Side Faces Swedish Giants in Key European Encounter
Elsewhere in the Europa League, Super Eagles and Rangers forward Cyriel Dessers is rallying his teammates for a tough test against Swedish league leaders Malmo. The two sides will face off at 5:45 p.m. on Thursday, September 26, in what promises to be a competitive clash.
Malmo, currently enjoying an eight-point lead at the top of the Swedish league, have been a formidable force against Scottish clubs, losing only once in their last eight meetings since 2011. Despite the daunting challenge, Dessers is optimistic that Rangers’ recent 3-0 victory over Dundee will serve as a confidence booster.
“Malmo away is not an easy start, but these are the games you want to play when you’re playing in Europe,” Dessers said. “I think the win over Dundee can give us some confidence, a boost, and hopefully we can have a good performance there as well and hopefully win.”
As Rangers gear up for their European challenge, Dessers remains focused on the task ahead, knowing that a positive result could set the tone for a successful Europa League campaign.
