Southampton and Fulham-linked RB Osayi-Samuel addresses speculation about Fenerbahce future
Published: July 30, 2024
Bright Osayi-Samuel has addressed speculation linking him with a departure from Fenerbahce before the close of the summer transfer window.
According to fresh reports in Turkey, the former Queens Park Rangers winger is being linked with a return to England, with Southampton and Fulham mentioned as possible destinations.
Wolverhampton Wanderers and Leeds United were previously credited with an interest in Osayi-Samuel, who has entered the final year of his contract at Fenerbahce.
It has been reported that Fenerbahce are willing to listen to offers in the region of €20m and will not consider any bids below this amount for the versatile right-back.
During Monday's pre-match press conference before Fenerbahce's Champions League qualifier with Lugano, Osayi-Samuel was quizzed on speculation linking him with a departure from the Yellow Canaries.
He responded: "My dad is more involved in stuff like that, just focusing on my football. As of now I am a Fenerbahce player so looking forward to the game."
Including the ongoing game against Lugano, Osayi-Samuel has appeared in 141 matches for Fenerbahce, scoring seven goals and providing thirteen assists.
When questioned if the transfer rumours affect him negatively after 140 matches for Fenerbahce, he replied: "It's good, hopefully I can keep going. In terms of the rumours, not really. I don't read any of that, just get home and go on my PlayStation."
Born in Okija, Osayi-Samuel is classed as a homegrown player by the English Football Association, having spent his formative years as a footballer with Blackpool.
