Bright Osayi-Samuel, the Super Eagles defender currently plying his trade at Fenerbahce, has fueled speculation of a Premier League move after being seen in the stands during Arsenal’s 5-1 win over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. The 26-year-old has made a significant impact at Fenerbahce since his arrival in 2017 from QPR, but with just six months remaining on his contract, talks of a potential exit have been heating up.

While Osayi-Samuel has reportedly declined to extend his contract with the Turkish side, his recent appearance at the Crystal Palace game has raised eyebrows, sparking rumors of a possible transfer to the London-based club. Fulham and Crystal Palace have both been linked with the defender in recent months, with the latter perhaps seen as the more likely destination due to Osayi-Samuel’s ties to the capital.

Despite the mounting speculation, a January move seems unlikely, as Crystal Palace is reportedly keen to wait until the summer, when they would be able to secure the Nigerian’s services without a transfer fee. Could this be the beginning of Osayi-Samuel’s Premier League journey?
