Nottingham Forest have reportedly shown interest in securing the services of Nigeria international Fisayo Dele-Bashiru from Lazio.
TuttoMercatoWeb adds that the Premier League side have already made initial enquiries about the 24-year-old midfielder, who joined Lazio from Turkish Super Lig outfit Hatayspor in 2024.
Lazio value Dele-Bashiru at approximately €15 million plus potential add-ons, a figure that could give the Italian club room to refresh their squad.
The Serie A side are reportedly waiting for Forest to formalize their interest with a concrete offer before engaging in detailed negotiations.
Financial fair play considerations could see Sean Dyche’s team exploring a loan deal with an option or obligation to buy rather than pursuing a straight transfer.
Dele-Bashiru is currently away representing Nigeria at the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations.
