Saudi Pro League: Al-Fayha eyes Super Eagles winger with lucrative offer, joining Anthony Nwakaeme as teammates

Since joining the team, Anthony Nwakaeme, who formerly played for Trabzonspor in Turkey, has established himself as a crucial player for Al-Fayha

Saudi Arabia Professional League club, Al-Fayha, is setting its sights on a potential move for Adana Dermispor winger, Henry Onyekuru, Soccernet.ng reports.

The Nigerian player has recently found himself at odds with the management of Adana Dermispor, and the club appears keen to sell him during this summer transfer window.

Reports from Turkey indicate that Al-Fayha is preparing an enticing offer to lure the talented 25-year-old winger to the Saudi Arabian club.

Onyekuru’s journey to Adana Dermispor began with a loan move from Greek Super League club Olympiacos last summer, which was later converted into a permanent transfer just two months ago.

Unfortunately, a discord between Onyekuru and the Blue Lightnings has surfaced, leading to the decision that he must part ways with the club. Now, Al-Fayha is looking to capitalize on the situation and secure the versatile player’s services for their squad.

Henry Onyekuru’s footballing career has taken him through several countries, having previously represented clubs in Belgium, Turkey, and France.

Al-Fayha’s potential lucrative offer could provide a new chapter in the winger’s journey as he considers his future in professional football.

If the transfer to Al-Fayha goes through, Onyekuru will find himself as teammates with another Nigerian international, Anthony Nwakaeme.

Nwakaeme, who played for Trabzonspor in Turkey for a while, has established himself as a key player for Al-Fayha since joining the club.

The player’s abilities as a dynamic winger have caught the attention of Al-Fayha, and they hope their offer will prove attractive enough to entice him to Saudi Arabia.
