Super Eagles forward, Josh Maja is attracting interest at the Midlands
Birmigham City have signified interest in one-cap Super Eagles attacker, Josh Maja.
Maja is currently on loan at Stoke City from Bordeaux and has had an average performance for the Potters.
In seventeen games, the attacker has scored two goals and assisted three for Stoke City who have an option to make the deal permanent.
Birmingham Live is reporting that there are interests on the former Sunderland player as they look to him to boost their chances next season.
Maja was given a standing ovation in Stoke’s win over QPR after a difficult few months at the club.
With Birmingham previously moving for the player’s signature, Bordeaux may be convinced to listen to the right offer for the 23-year old forward.
Maja earned a Super Eagles callup in 2019 and featured as a substitute in the 2-2 draw against Ukraine.
He was a teammate to Super Eagles and Watford winger, Samuel Kalu at Bordeaux.
He was also at Fulham on loan last season but couldn’t save the Cottagers from relegation.

Did I still remember my Queen’s Primer which taught lessons such as “up we go, we go up; are we up? yes we are; up, up we go…”
In this aspect, Gernot Rohr was right when he bemoaned the absence of most Super Eagles’ players in top flight European clubs. I mean in clubs such as Bayern Munich, Chelsea, ManCity, Barcelona, Real Madrid, PSG, Inter Milan etc.
I think the Zenith is where Nigerian footballers abroad should be looking at, if they expect to be considered by Nigerians as qualifying to play for Nigeria. The alternative is to focus on our local football league and to put all that effort and money into building it to acceptable standards
That means hard work and much more. This is 2022, and thank goodness that we missed Qatar. That could have been yet another distraction to lure us into falsly believing that we have a strong team. Broda Amaju Pinnick, you nefer see real work before, na…
