Wolverhampton Wanderers have launched an enormous bid for Super Eagles and Fenerbahce versatile full-back, Bright Osayi-Samuel.
The 26-year-old has been ever-present for the Yellow Canaries this season, scoring three goals and dishing out two assists in 18 League outings.
Osayi has featured as a right-back, right-wing-back, midfielder, and right-winger, across 34 matches in all competitions showing his versatility and importance in the Fenerbahce team.
The former Queen Park Rangers man has been linked with a return to England, as Leeds United, Crystal Palace, and Wolves are all rumored to be interested in his service.
According to Turkish outlet, NTVSpor, Wolverhampton Wanderers have made a 12 million euro bid for the Super Eagles defender as a first step in strengthening their squad for next season after injuries ripped them apart this campaign.
The bid made by Wolves is towards the range that is considered acceptable by the Turkish outfit, Fenerbahce, and the success of the deal rests in the team’s response.
Osayi’s contract with Fenerbache stands until the end of 2025, hinting that he might be returning to the English top flight this summer, or else they risk losing him for free in 2025.
Wolves are currently 12th in the English Premier League standings and are winless in their previous five matches.
Although the Old Gold are safe from relegation, their poor run of form is something they look to improve going forward, and hopefully end the season on a high note.
Osayi and Fenerbahce have only lost one league game this season, and are second on the Turkish Super Lig table, seven points behind League leaders, Galatasaray. With five games left to play, the destination of the League title is between both teams.
What’s next for Osayi Samuel?
It remains to be seen if the Super Eagles’ defender will be interested in moving to Wolves or focus elsewhere when his contract with Fenerbache runs out.
