Nigerian midfielder Eddy Onazi , 22, has released a brief statement to the Italian media about his health condition after further tests were carried out.
The Lazio midfielder came back from international duty with an adductor injury and has been on the sidelines for two weeks, with his last competitive fixture coming against Swaziland in a World Cup qualifier on November 17.
“I’m fine, I’m better now, ” Onazi said to lalaziosiamonoi.it.
Meanwhile, Lazio have echoed the words of their Nigerian star, saying via their official website that he started training with the first team on Monday and his practice will be intensified over the next few days.
Onazi missed games in the Serie A against Palermo and Empoli plus the Europa League fixture with Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk due to the ailment.
