Keep your millions, Onazi tells Liverpool, Tottenham

 

Lazio midfielder, Ogenyi Onazi has insisted that he is enjoying his career at Italian Serie A side, Lazio and wants to remain in Italy for few more years.

The former Golden Eaglets playmaker has been a big revelation for his Serie A outfit and his form this season has alerted a host of clubs around Europe, with Liverpool and Tottenham leading the chase.

The Reds showed keen interest in signing the Nigeria international during the January transfer window but failed to agree a deal before the close of the winter window; and with Brendan Rodgers planning a summer spending spree, the 21-year-old is back on his radar and is reportedly ready to splash 10 million pounds on him.

But, in phone chat with Newswatch Sports from his base in Italy, Onazi said he is enjoying himself with the Biancazzurris.

“I am delighted to hear that a big team like Liverpool are making moves to get me, but it’s only in the pages of the newspapers, they are one of the European football giants. It’s a great honour to hear that considering the fact that it’s the dream of every player to play for some of the best teams in Europe.

“It’s an evidence that what you are doing is being appreciated by people. But for now, I am enjoying myself here and having one of the best moments of my career. May be I will play for them some time some day in the near future, you never can tell,’’ predicted Onazi who is expected to marshall Nigeria’s midfield at the World Cup.

Onazi has played 39 games in all competitions this season and has scored two goals. The mercurial midfielder was also one of Stephen Keshi’s anchor men in the Super Eagles as Nigeria picked her fifth World Cup qualification in history.
