Bordeaux Make Bid For Nigeria's Most Promising Talent In Europe
Published: August 03, 2018
French Ligue 1 team Bordeaux are in talks with their Belgian counterparts KAA Gent over the transfer of exciting winger Samuel Kalu.
French sports daily L'Equipe says Bordeaux launched an undisclosed bid for Kalu on Friday, August 3 and the two clubs are negotiating the transfer of the talented Nigerian youngster.
Kalu does not play centrally in attack but has been scoring or creating
goals for Gent; he has been directly involved in 26 goals (10 goals, 16 assists) in 55 appearances since his move to Belgium.
Last season, the 20-year-old was heralded as Nigeria's most promising talent in Europe by CIES Football Observatory.
Another niche to his game is that he can also play as an attacking midfielder and can be deployed on the left flank.
The former AS Trencin starlet is contracted to KAA Gent until the summer of 2020.
