The 21 year-old Nigerian midfielder has been earning rave reviews for his performances in the Italian league. He is now considered one of the most exciting young players in Serie A and this has led to interest from Liverpool.

Reports in Italy claim that Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has made it clear to Lazio that he will make a bid for the Nigerian international this summer.

But it now seems as though Tottenham have entered the race for the players’ signature. The midfielder has recently spoken of his desire to play in the Premier League and that news has seemed to have reached Tottenham and their Director of Football, Franco Baldini, has made contact with Lazio to discuss a move for the 21 year old.

Ogenyi Onazi is a small and agile, but hard-working, player. He is a box-to-box midfielder with and eye for goal. Baldini believes that he can add the player to Spurs’ ranks for around ÂŁ8 million.

Lazio are already resigned to losing the player and will hope that Tottenham’s interest will spark a bidding war between the London club and Liverpool.
