Oyedele could leave Strasbourg as Udinese track Chad international Tchaouna

Maximillian Oyedele could leave RC Strasbourg during the winter transfer window after failing to make a first-team appearance since the start of the season.

The midfielder, who is of Nigerian origin, has not been included in any matchday squad. He joined Strasbourg in July 2025 and remains under contract until 30 June 2030.

Oyedele initially faced health problems, but his recent call-ups to Poland’s youth national teams indicate that he is no longer injured. That has raised the possibility of a move in January, according to Polska Pioneers.

Legia Warsaw are considering bringing back the 22-year-old to strengthen their midfield. Oyedele has already played 24 matches for the Polish club.

Legia’s sporting director Fredi Bobic has said the club will assess its recruitment options during the winter window, although no specific commitment has been made regarding Oyedele.

Udinese consider move for Franky Tchaouna

Udinese are also exploring potential reinforcements as they look to address their current difficulties, with the club increasing its transfer activity ahead of the next market.

The Serie A side have widened their scouting work to Serie B, where Franky Tchaouna has played since moving to Italy two years ago.

The Chad international is owned by Salernitana and currently plays for Catanzaro. Udinese’s management are monitoring his situation, according to Tuttomercatoweb.

The club will decide whether to pursue the deal after the first half of the season.
