Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that Football League Two club Blackpool have rejected a 600,000 pounds bid from Bristol City for Bright Osayi-Samuel, with few hours left before the close of the summer transfer window.

The winger attempted to push his move to Bristol City to the last day which was today but the owner of the Seasiders scuppered his plans.

In a move reminiscent of the Peter Odemwingie transfer saga at West Brom back in 2013, Osayi-Samuel was on the way to Ashton Gate to hear what the terms would have been because the owner, Oyston, finally agreed to talk with Bristol City.

But Oyston later declined the offer from The Robins and the Nigerian teenager had to drive back.

 Derby County had earlier failed with a bid of 400,000 pounds to sign the 19-year-old.
