Super Eagles star agrees pre-contract to replace Ola Aina

Posted : 06 March 2025

Nottingham Forest, a contender for the English Premier League title, has reportedly reached a pre-contract agreement with Fenerbahce full-back Bright Osayi-Samuel. This development has raised concerns about the future of Super Eagles defender Ola Aina at the club.


The 27-year-old Nigerian international is approaching the end of his contract with Fenerbahce. With no renewal offer under Jose Mourinho, Osayi-Samuel is expected to return to England. Having previously played for Queens Park Rangers, he has been a consistent performer for Fenerbahce, making 168 appearances, scoring seven goals, and providing 14 assists. His move to Nottingham Forest could indicate he is set to replace Aina, though the situation is more complicated.


Aina, who joined Forest on a free transfer from Torino, has been one of their standout signings. His contributions have been crucial, and allowing him to leave for free would be a questionable decision. The Super Eagles defender has expressed his desire to stay at the City Ground, which should encourage Forest to offer him a new contract rather than lose him.


With Manchester City reportedly showing interest in Aina, Forest will need to act swiftly to secure his future. The club has to make a decision on whether to renew his contract or risk losing him to one of the Premier League's top sides.


Osayi-Samuel's potential arrival could shake up Forest's defensive plans. While his signing could fill Aina’s position, the club must carefully manage both players' futures. This situation creates uncertainty regarding the club’s summer transfer strategy, which will be intriguing to follow.


As the summer transfer window approaches, the situation at Nottingham Forest will be worth monitoring. The club's approach to securing both Osayi-Samuel and Aina could play a significant role in their Premier League title aspirations.


While Osayi-Samuel's arrival seems imminent, Forest must focus on resolving Aina’s contract situation. The club's actions in the coming months could determine the future of their defense and their ambitions for the upcoming season.
