Basit Ahmed has completed a permanent move from Portuguese side Feirense to Czech club FC Sellier & Bellot Vlašim on a free transfer, signing a deal that runs from 2026-02-09 to 2028-06-30. The Nigerian centre-forward leaves Liga Portugal 2 for a new challenge in the Czech second tier, the ChNL, with his current market value listed at €125k.
The transfer ends Ahmed’s short spell at Feirense, who allowed the 21‑year‑old to depart without a fee despite his six‑figure valuation. Vlašim secure a young attacking option who can operate through the middle of the front line and is regarded primarily as a centre-forward, with a right-footed profile that fits conventional striking roles in a two‑tier European system.
Ahmed’s switch to the Czech Republic continues a career that has already taken him across several clubs in quick succession. After emerging at Beyond Limits Football Academy in Nigeria, he moved to Europe with FC Paços de Ferreira U19, then went through a spell without a club before signing for SC Vila Real in Portugal. Subsequent moves to Florgrade FC and then Feirense kept him within the Portuguese system before this latest step to Vlašim.
The move also marks a further shift away from his home country. Born on 04/07/2004 and holding Nigerian nationality, Ahmed has developed exclusively in foreign leagues since leaving Beyond Limits, and now adds Czech football to a résumé that already includes the Portuguese lower tiers and Liga Portugal 2. His experience spans youth football at Paços de Ferreira and senior stints at Vila Real, Florgrade and Feirense.
Feirense’s participation in Liga Portugal 2 provided Ahmed a platform in a competitive second division, but his new environment will be the ChNL, where Vlašim compete in the Czech second tier. The transfer data lists the move as completed on 2026-02-09, with no fee changing hands despite the player’s €125k market valuation as of late 2025, underscoring Vlašim’s opportunity to add value to their attack at minimal cost.
While detailed appearance and goal statistics for Ahmed’s time at his recent clubs are not specified in the available data, his consistent registration as a centre-forward suggests Vlašim view him as a direct attacking option rather than a wide or hybrid forward. Standing 1.80m tall and preferring his right foot, he offers a fairly balanced physical and technical profile for the role.
For Nigerian observers, Ahmed’s continued progression abroad reinforces a familiar pathway: local academy development followed by moves into European systems outside the top five leagues. For Vlašim, the acquisition of a 21‑year‑old with cross‑border experience and an established market valuation represents both a sporting and potential financial asset. If he adapts quickly to Czech football and the demands of the ChNL, this contract could become a key stepping stone in elevating his profile and opening further opportunities higher up the European ladder before his deal expires on 2028-06-30.
