Lazio Rejects Premier League Bids for Dele-Bashiru, Arsenal Eyes Tonali

Lazio has turned down bids from Premier League sides Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth for midfielder Fisayo Dele-Bashiru, signaling their intention to keep him despite limited playing time. Dele-Bashiru, a Nigerian international, is expected to remain in Italy until at least the end of the current season.

Turkish club Trabzonspor has shown interest in the midfielder, but no deal has materialized. Meanwhile, Arsenal has made inquiries about Newcastle United's Sandro Tonali, who is expected to undergo surgery and miss the rest of the season.

Tonali, who joined Newcastle from AC Milan in 2023, has become a key figure for the Magpies. Arsenal is exploring the possibility of a late move for Tonali as the transfer window nears its close, adding a surprising twist to the market.
