Hull City keen on Nigeria's Unity Cup hero after stellar season for Millwall

Hull City are eyeing a move for Nigeria's 2026 Unity Cup star Femi Azeez ahead of their return to the Premier League, according to Football League World 

The 25-year-old has attracted fresh interest after an outstanding 2025-26 Championship campaign in which he scored 11 goals and provided eight assists in 37 appearances, helping Millwall reach the playoffs.

On the international stage, Azeez was arguably the Super Eagles' standout performer in the Unity Cup, where he registered two goals and provided an assist. 

Thanks to his excellent performances for club and country, Azeez has put himself in the shop window. 

Ipswich Town reportedly had a £20 million bid rejected after securing promotion, while Millwall are believed to value the winger at around £30 million. 

With two years remaining on his contract, the Lions are under no immediate pressure to sell and are expected to drive a hard bargain.

Although there is no indication that Azeez is pushing for a move, the opportunity to play in the Premier League could prove tempting. 

Hull's level of interest and willingness to meet Millwall's valuation remain uncertain, but any approach is unlikely to be welcomed by the London club, who see the winger as central to another promotion challenge after his impressive performances last season.
