After a week marked by worry, Boulaye Dia, the Senegalese striker for Lazio Rome, will resume training this Tuesday at the Formello sports center. The announcement was confirmed by the Italian club via an official press release, specifying that the player will return to the Italian capital this Monday before returning to the field the next day.
“SS Lazio announces that after constant monitoring between the club and the Senegalese Federation, Boulaye Dia will return to Rome on Monday and will resume training on Tuesday,” we can read in the note published on the club’s official website. A relief for coach Marco Baroni, who considers Boulaye Dia as a key element of his 4-2-3-1 system. Positioned sometimes as a supporting attacker, sometimes as a playmaker behind Taty Castellanos, the Senegalese has quickly established himself since his arrival last summer.
Despite a malaria attack reported by the Senegalese Federation last week, which forced him to miss Senegal’s victory against Burkina Faso (1-0) and to forfeit the match scheduled for tomorrow against Burundi in Dakar, Boulaye Dia now appears to have recovered. Deemed physically weakened, he was released by the Federation to recover. The Lazio player, scorer of eight goals in 16 appearances in all competitions this season, including four in Serie A, has already proven his effectiveness in front of goal. His return is excellent news for his club, which currently occupies fifth place in the Italian championship and will face Bologna next Sunday.
