Onyedika Making Headlines in Nigeria
Club Brugge, the reigning champions, are preparing for their Champions League campaign next season. One player who has been catching the eye is Nigerian midfielder Raphael Onyedika.
Onyedika joined Club Brugge from FC Midtjylland for nearly €10 million in the summer of 2022. Despite a promising start, he faced setbacks due to injuries and doubts from the former coach. However, under Nicky Hayen, Onyedika has regained his form and impressed once again.
With the arrival of Ardon Jashari as a new midfielder for next season, there is speculation that Onyedika may leave the club. His recent resurgence has attracted interest from various clubs, including Crystal Palace from the Premier League.
Onyedika further showcased his talent while playing for the Nigerian national team in a World Cup qualifier against Benin, scoring a beautiful goal. Although Nigeria lost the match, Onyedika’s performance did not go unnoticed by scouts.
As the midfielder’s market value continues to rise, it remains to be seen if Club Brugge will decide to sell him in the upcoming transfer window.
