Fulham prepare ₦5.3billion for Super Eagles star

The Super Eagles star had an outstanding season with the Dragons, and his great exploits have been noticed by the Premier League new boys

Newly promoted English Premier League side Fulham are looking to offer Porto €12million(₦5.3billion) for the services of Super Eagles defender Zaidu Sanusi.

Zaidu was brilliant for Porto last season scoring three goals in 40 appearances in all competitions. In fact, it was his whooping strike that guaranteed the Dragons a 30th Portuguese league triumph.

However, the Nigerian star is not the most famous name in Porto, as occasionally the fans have trolled him. Last summer he was linked with a move to Turkey, but nothing concrete emerged from the talks.

Nonetheless, Sportwitness that the 24-year-old left-back has attracted interest from the Premier League. Fulham are willing to offer Porto €12million(₦5.3billion) for Sanusi’s services.

The Cottagers are looking to make an impression on their return to the English top-flight under boss Marco Silva. The 44-year-old Portuguese tactician is known to be a lover of attacking football, and Sanusi could be a fine recruitment as the Nigerian star loves to bump forward.

However, getting Sanusi could be a tough ask as Porto may not listen to offer less than €20miilion for the Super Eagles defender.
