Nigerian winger Oluwatosin Ayetigbo is being linked with a move from UFC Hallein to Austria Salzburg as the 2. Liga side weigh attacking options ahead of the summer window.
The 23-year-old left winger, who wears the No 9 shirt for Hallein in the Salzburger Liga, is the subject of fresh speculation dated 13 May 2026, with the reported probability of a deal currently listed only as “?”. Austria Salzburg, who play in Austria’s 2. Liga, are understood to be monitoring the possibility of a deal but there is no indication yet of advanced negotiations.
Ayetigbo’s contractual situation at Hallein is unclear, with no start date or expiry date recorded, raising the prospect that he could become a free agent or be available at minimal cost if an agreement is reached. His market value is not listed on Transfermarkt (recorded as “none”), something that is likely to fuel debate over what fee, if any, would be required to prise him away from the Salzburger Liga side.
Standing at 1.92m and naturally left-footed, Ayetigbo operates primarily as an attacking left winger but has also been used across the front line for Hallein. Born in Ile-Ife, Nigeria, on 8 April 2003, he has been building his career in Austria’s regional set-up and is registered with Nigerian nationality only.
Recent matches in the Salzburger Liga have seen Ayetigbo continue to feature in the forward line for Hallein, though detailed statistics for individual fixtures – including opponents, exact dates, scorelines and his specific contributions – are not publicly recorded in the available data.
With his future at Hallein open-ended and no formal valuation attached, any move to Austria Salzburg would represent a significant step up in profile and competition level, and could prove a pivotal moment in shaping Ayetigbo’s career trajectory in European football if it materialises.
