The 23-year-old is yet to open his goal account in Serie A but has shone in the UEFA Europa League.
He has scored two goals and registered two assists in four appearances for the Biancolesti in the competition.
“His (Dele-Bashiru) qualities really struck us when we were looking at the players eligible for the call-up,” Peseiro told Sportitalia.
“He is proving his worth, while still adapting to the demands of Italian football and Lazio. With time he will achieve the consistency required in the game and at the club.”
