Super Eagles midfielder Frank Onyeka will not join German Bundesliga club Augsburg permanently despite impressing during his loan stint at the club last season, Soccernet.ng reports.
After three impressive years at Brentford, Onyeka was deemed as surplus to requirements and had to leave the club last summer for a loan stint with Augsburg.
For a player of his quality, Onyeka was expected to give The Fuggerstädter a big lift, and that he did. Onyeka quickly became a regular for Augsburg.
In the just-concluded campaign, the 27-year-old midfielder nicked one assists in 31 appearances for Jess Thorup's team, helping them to a 12th place finish in the Bundesliga.
Augsburg played their last game of the season on Saturday, and just before their game, they revealed the players who were leaving the club and acknowledged them with flowers and murals.
Thank you for everything, gentlemen!

Onyeka was one of the four players who Augsburg bade farewell to, and that automatically means that he will not be playing for the club next season.
Frank Onyeka: What's next for Super Eagles star?
Frank Onyeka will now return to Brentford where he still has two years left on his contract.
It is unknown whether the Super Eagles midfielder will play for Thomas Frank's team next season.
But it is likely that he will get more minutes next season because the Bees need some reinforcements as they brace up for a summer that could see them lose some important players.
Onyeka does not offer a lot in attack, but he is a hard worker in the middle of the park and offers a lot defensively.
