Osayi injured in the middle of a transfer discussion

Published on: 21 January 2023

Super Eagles full back Bright Osayi-Samuel suffered an injury while playing for his club side Fenerbahçe in Turkish Cup against Çaykur Rizespor.

The 25 year old got injured in the 80th minute of the game, and was taken off the field. Although the club is yet to say how serious the injury is but this may reduce the attention from other clubs for a possible transfer this month.

The Nigeria international in the last seven days had been linked with a couple of Premier League clubs like Nottingham Forest, Crystal Palace with WestHam reportedly motoring proceedings.

Fenerbahçe lured the Nigerian international from QPR to Turkey for a fee of around €508k, but as a result of the injury, they may have missed their best opportunity to sell the Nigerian international for an interesting transfer fee.
