Super Eagles defender Bright Osayi-Samuel has been included in Fenerbahçe’s squad for their crucial UEFA Europa League clash against Rangers in Scotland.
The right-back’s contract situation remains unresolved, as he has yet to agree on a new deal with Fenerbahçe. Reports suggest he could leave as a free agent in the summer, with a return to England among the possible options.
Osayi-Samuel has also been named in Nigeria’s final 23-man squad for the must-win 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Rwanda and Zimbabwe next week.
Editorial

Osayi-Samuel missed the first leg in Turkey due to suspension, a match where Fenerbahçe suffered a 3-1 defeat. Nigerian striker Cyriel Dessers played a key role for Rangers in that game, scoring one goal and providing an assist.
His uncertain club future could be a distraction, but if he performs well, he might attract offers from Premier League clubs. Meanwhile, his inclusion in Nigeria’s World Cup qualifiers squad shows that he remains a key part of the Super Eagles setup.
