Troyes join Osayi-Samuel pursuit

According Turkish journalist and editor-in-chief of Sports Digitale, Yağız Sabuncuoğlu, French outfit, Troyes, have joined Glasgow Rangers in the race for Nigerian International, Bright Osayi-Samuel with an official offer to Fenerbahce.

Sabuncuoğlu added that Rangers have contact with the Yellow Canaries over the potential signing of the Blackpool academy product.

The French side will spend next season in the French Ligue 2 having finished 19th in the last campaign in the Ligue 1, a season after regaining promotion.

Osayi-Samuel has been unable to secure a starting berth in the Fenerbahce squad in the 2022/2023 season as Ferdi Kadioglu was preferred over him and the Nigerian could be on his way out of the club.

The right-back joined Fenerbahce in 2021 and has made 99 appearances, notching 3 goals and seven assists.

Before Troyes and Rangers expressed their interest in the Nigerian, Premier League club, Brentford, had tabled €12m for the defender.
