Debut delight for Dele-Bashiru: Lazio midfielder joins Tottenham star, 9 others in Europa League TOTW

Super Eagles midfielder Fisayo Dele-Bashiru has been rewarded for his brilliant display for Lazio in their 3-0 win over Dynamo Kyiv in the UEFA Europa League opener on Wednesday.

On his European debut, the Manchester City aacdemy product scored and assisted to help Lazio begin their Europa League campaign with a victory and has now been named in Whoscored's Europa League Team of the Week alongside Tottenham Hotspur star Guglielmo Vicario and nine others.

Dele-Bashiru scored with a gorgeous strike from Matías Vecino's pass to double the White and Blues' lead and also assisted Boulaye Dia for the third goal with a precise cross.

He was an unused substitute in the last two consecutive games before Wednesday's encounter with Dynamo Kyiv.

The 23-year-old's display against the Ukrainian side was undoubtedly the best in the colours of the Biancocelesti and he will be hoping to replicate that form in the upcoming games.

FCSB, Lazio, Fenerbahçe, and Eintracht Frankfurt have two players in the team while Olympique Lyon, Bodø/Glimt and Tottenham have one apiece.

Below is the full team

Goalkeeper: Vicario (Tottenham)

Defenders: Rasmus Kristensen (Eintracht Frankfurt), Duje Ćaleta-Car (Lyon), Çağlar Söyüncü (Fenerbahçe), Jayden Oosterwolde (Fenerbahçe)

Midfielders: Dele-Bashiru (Lazio), Darius Olaru (FCSB), Marius Ștefănescu (FCSB), Jens Petter Hauge (Bodø/Glimt)

Forwards: Dia (Lazio), Hugo Ekitike (Eintracht Frankfurt)
