Turkish football powerhouse Fenerbahce is engaged in talks to extend the contract of Super Eagles defender Bright Osayi-Samuel beyond 2025, as the club seeks to bolster its defensive line and secure a competitive edge in the Turkish Super Lig.
The 26-year-old’s current deal is set to expire next year, but Fenerbahce is keen to retain his services and ensure his long-term commitment to the team. Osayi-Samuel has become an indispensable asset to the club since joining from Queens Park Rangers in 2020, initially as a right winger before transitioning to a right-back role.
Under the astute guidance of José Mourinho, Osayi-Samuel has flourished, becoming an integral part of Fenerbahce’s plans to reclaim the Turkish Super Lig title. Despite being sidelined with an ankle injury, he has already made five appearances this season, contributing one assist and demonstrating his value to the team.
Fenerbahce is hopeful that Osayi-Samuel will recover in time for their upcoming Europa League clash against Union SG, a crucial match that could determine the team’s progress in the competition. His importance to the team’s future success is evident, and the club is eager to keep him on board.
By extending Osayi-Samuel’s contract, Fenerbahce aims to send a strong message about its ambition and commitment to building a competitive team capable of challenging for domestic and international honors.
