Flamingos star Oluwakemi Adegbuyi has reportedly attracted interest from Spanish giants Barcelona and Real Madrid following her impressive performances at the 2026 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup in Morocco.
Adegbuyi enjoyed a remarkable campaign at the recently concluded tournament, registering two goals and one assist in seven appearances to help Nigeria clinch the title last weekend.
The U-17 World Cup triumph capped a remarkable year for the youngster, who was adjudged NWFL Player of the Season, WAFU B Girls' Cup Player of the Tournament and WAFU B Champions League Qualifiers Player of the Tournament.
According to reports, both Barcelona and Real Madrid are ready to offer the youngster a pathway into European football.
A move to Barcelona would see Adegbuyi become the second Nigerian to join Barcelona Femení after Super Falcons legend Asisat Oshoala.
Barcelona Femení are currently regarded as one of the world's leading women's teams and are the reigning European champions.
