Big summer transfers: Where will Super Eagles’ top stars go?

Several top Super Eagles will be on the move this summer, from Victor Osimhen to Wilfred Ndidi.

SCORENigeria gives an idea of ​​where these stars will finally land after all the transfer speculation.

5.William Ekong

The experienced centre-back has two years left on his contract at Greek club PAOK, but in the twilight of his career he could be tempted by the petrodollars of Saudi Arabia. He has been linked with Far Eastern interests at AFCON and it won’t be such a bad idea to go for one last big pay day in Saudi Arabia. He must secure the financial future of his young family.

Ejuke – Will he play in Antwerp next season?

4. Chidera Ejuke

The dribbling wizard is out of contract at CSKA Moscow this summer and is most likely looking for greener pastures as he hasn’t exactly set Russia on fire. After a difficult start to life in Belgium, he started his magic on loan in Antwerp. Antwerp will be a possible destination, but there has been so much unrest both on and off the pitch at Belgium’s oldest football club in recent times that they may not be offered as big a signing-on fee as free agent The German Bundesliga, where he played last season, could be an option.

3. Kelechi Iheanacho

He gave several hints that he will leave Leicester City, despite their return to the Premier League, at the first time he asked. The striker has fallen to “The Foxes” and at 27 years of age, he can very much earn the transfer as a free agent without a transfer fee. There is already interest in the Premier League with the likes of Crystal Palace and Aston Villa. He is also wanted in Turkey, but the first consideration would obviously be to stay in England, where he has played for the last 10 years.

2.Wilfred Ndidi

Like ‘Senior Man Kels’, the midfielder is unlikely to extend his stay at Leicester City when his contract also expires this summer. He has already been linked with some of Europe’s top clubs, from Real Madrid to Bayern Munich. SCORENigeria has already reported that his managers have insisted that if he stays put in England, it will be with one of the Premier League’s Top-6. He should have no shortage of worthy suitors on the back of his most prolific season in Europe.

Osimhen – Top Premier League clubs want him, but can they pay?

1. Victor Osimhen

Will it be PSG or the Premier League for the Napoli forward? Most Nigerian fans will want to see Osimhen test his mettle in their favorite European league, the Premier League. However, the biggest hurdle for the likes of Chelsea and Arsenal would be the €130m buyout clause that Napoli have inserted into the forward’s new contract. PSG, on the other hand, will have no trouble matching that rating, especially with the now confirmed departure of their star man Kylian Mbappe. Should Mbappe’s replacement at the big-spending Paris club be tempting for Osimhen, or will he eventually succumb to the Saudi’s life-changing offer?
