Augustine Oladapo: Nigerian midfielder linked with DPMM FC switch from Saudi side Al‑Wehda

Nigerian central midfielder Augustine Oladapo of Saudi First Division League club Al‑Wehda is being linked with a move to DPMM FC, who compete in the Malaysia Super League.

The 30-year-old, valued at €150k on Transfermarkt, is the subject of fresh speculation over his future, with the Brunei-based side reportedly exploring the possibility of bringing him in as they reshape their midfield options. The rumour, logged on 14 June 2026, lists the probability of the move only as “?”, underlining that talks are at an early and uncertain stage.

Oladapo, whose primary role is in central midfield, has built a reputation as a hard-working presence in the middle of the pitch during his time in Saudi Arabia with Al‑Wehda. He currently remains under contract with the Makkah club, with no expiry date publicly disclosed, leaving it unclear whether DPMM FC would be negotiating a transfer fee or positioning themselves to act if he is later released and becomes a free agent.

The Nigerian’s recent outings in the Saudi First Division League have kept him in the shop window, with his performances monitored by clubs in need of experience and discipline in midfield. In his latest appearance for Al‑Wehda, against league opposition earlier this month, Oladapo featured in a competitive fixture that underlined his usual combative style in a tight scoreline, though no formal approach from DPMM FC has yet been confirmed.

At 30, Oladapo is entering what is often regarded as the peak period for a central midfielder, and a move to DPMM FC in the Malaysia Super League would offer a fresh challenge in a different Asian footballing environment. Should the transfer materialise, it could provide a platform for him to enhance his reputation in Southeast Asia and extend his career at a competitive level.
