Oluwafisayo Faruq Dele-Bashiru (born 6 February 2001) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Serie A club Lazio, on loan from Süper Lig club Hatayspor. Born in Germany, he plays for the Nigeria national team.

Club career

After playing for the Manchester City youth team, whom he joined at the age of 8,[3] he moved to Sheffield Wednesday in July 2020, signing for an undisclosed fee.[4][5]

He made his senior debut on 5 September 2020, in the EFL Cup, starting the game away to Walsall[6] and would make his first league appearance against Bristol City coming off the bench.[7] In February 2021 he suffered an ankle injury after coming off the bench against Brentford, and it was expected that he would be out-of-action for four-to-six weeks.[8]

He broke into the first team again during his second season, and in October 2021 he won the club's Player of the Month award,[9] as well as scoring his first senior goal in a game against Cambridge United.[10]

In September 2022, he was nominated for the EFL Cup Player of the Second Round, following a goal and assist against Rochdale, which he subsequently won.[11][12] Following promotion back to the EFL Championship Dele-Bashiru was offered a new contract to stay at the club.[13]

On 6 July 2023, it was confirmed he had joined Turkish club Hatayspor on a three-year contract.[14] He scored eight goals in his first Süper Lig season, finishing as the club's joint-top scorer along with Carlos Strandberg,[15] including a crucial goal on the final matchday in a 2–0 win over Rizespor, securing his club's survival in the top tier.[16]

On 6 July 2024, he joined Italian side Lazio on loan with an obligation to buy.[17]

International career

In October 2023, Dele-Bashiru was called up to the Nigeria national team.[18][19] He scored in his second appearance for Nigeria during their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying match against South Africa.[citation needed]

Personal life

Born in Germany, Dele-Bashiru moved to England at a young age and is of Nigerian descent.[20] His brother Tom Dele-Bashiru is also a footballer.[4]
