4 reasons for Osayi Samuel's departure from Fenerbahçe! Nigerian press announced

Bright Osayi-Samuel, whose contract with Fenerbahçe will expire in June 2025, is at a crossroads with the yellow-navy team.

While it is known that Fenerbahçe could not reach an agreement with the star player, the Nigerian press examined four main points as to why the player would not stay with the yellow-navy team.

1 - NO AGREEMENT ON CONTRACT EXTENSION

The news reported that Fenerbahçe and Osayi could not reach an agreement on a new contract, and that the yellow-navy team made an offer but Osayi did not accept it. It was reported that Fenerbahçe's financial conditions did not suit the Nigerian football player.

2- HE LOST MOURINHO’S TRUST

Osayi-Samuel was an important player under Jose Mourinho and was often in Fenerbahçe's first 11, but Osayi lost his jersey after the year 2025. It was written that Mourinho's decision not to play Osayi made it seem like he was not in his future plans.

3- THERE IS INTEREST FROM ENGLAND

Osayi is being approached by many English clubs, including Crystal Palace from the English Premier League. He wants to return to England to his family. There is a high probability that he will return to the Premier League or Championship once his contract expires.

4- OGUZ AYDIN'S RISING PERFORMANCE

Oğuz Aydın has been an indispensable part of the team since the beginning of the year and impresses Mourinho with his contributions in both attack and defense. Originally an attacking player, Oğuz quickly adapted to the right-back position and became one of the indispensable players in the first 11, filling Osayi's position.

Due to contract uncertainties, reduced match time and competition from players with improving form, it seems inevitable that Osayi-Samuel will leave Fenerbahçe this summer.
