Published: November 29, 2015

Eddy Onazi will not feature in Lazio’s Serie A clash against Empoli on Sunday evening as he is still recovering from a first-degree adductor injury he picked up while on international duty with the national team.

The Biancocelesti manager, Stefano Pioli , has named a 22 - man squad for the away game at Stadio Carlo Castellani but has omitted the Nigeria international from the roster.

Following tests carried out on his return to the Italian capital, Lazio’s medics had confirmed that Onazi would return to first team action latest on Sunday, November 29.

The 22 - year - old has made 5 Serie A appearances this term, first featuring against Napoli before playing against Sassuolo, Torino, Atalanta and AC Milan.

Lazio are without a win in the topflight since October 25 when they beat Torino 3 - 0 at the Stadio Olimpico.
