Bright Osayi-Samuel, the Nigerian footballer, has set his sights on playing in the English Premier League. Despite being linked with a move to Glasgow Rangers, the winger has expressed his desire to play in the top tier of English football. The player’s impressive performance has attracted interest from both Brentford FC and AFC Bournemouth, who are both vying for his signature in the current transfer window.

Speaking to Sporty9ja, Osayi-Samuel revealed that his ambition is to play in the English Premier League, stating: “No disrespect, they [Fenerbahçe] have done so much for me there [in Turkey]. But my ambition is to play in the Premier League. So when I feel that the time is the right time for me to go, I will take it.”
Osayi-Samuel’s impressive performance during Nigeria’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Guinea-Bissau showcased his abilities and confirmed his status as one of the most promising Nigerian talents. With Brentford and AFC Bournemouth both vying for his signature, it remains to be seen where the winger will end up. However, one thing is for sure, Osayi-Samuel has set his sights on playing in the English Premier League.
