It is reported that Eddy Onazi is on the verge of leaving Lazio to join Turkish club Trabzonspor.

The Nigerian international is a former Biancocelesti youth player, having broken into the first team squad in 2012.

However, the 23-year-old is now surplus to requirements at Stadio Olimpico and appears set to leave in a deal worth €5m.

According to La Repubblica, an agreement over the transfer was reached between all parties weeks ago, but the instability and turmoil of recent events in Turkey has prevented the deal from going through.
