Spain‑Nigeria right winger David Otorbi of Valencia B is being linked with a summer switch to Swiss Super League side FC St Gallen, with the 18-year-old’s situation attracting attention amid uncertainty over his contract status.
The Valencia-born forward, who represents Valencia Mestalla and wears the number 22 shirt, is currently valued at €500k on Transfermarkt, a figure seen as modest for a player regarded as one of the more intriguing prospects in Spain’s lower divisions. The reported probability of the move remains unclear, listed only as “?”, underlining that negotiations are at an early and speculative stage.
Otorbi, 1.80m tall and right-footed, has been developing in the Segunda Federación Group III with Valencia B, operating mainly as an attacking right winger. With no publicly listed contract expiry date, there is external speculation that he could become a free agent in the near future, a scenario that would significantly lower the financial barrier for St Gallen or any other suitor.
Born on 16 October 2007, Otorbi holds both Spanish and Nigerian nationality, adding to his appeal for clubs seeking players with multi-national eligibility. He has progressed through Valencia’s system and has yet to make a senior breakthrough at Mestalla, but his performances for the B team have kept scouts attentive.
In Valencia B’s most recent outing, a Segunda Federación fixture in late May 2026, Otorbi featured on the right flank in a tightly contested match (exact opponent, scoreline and individual statistics are not publicly detailed in the available data), underlining his status as a regular in the side rather than a fringe prospect.
Should a move to St Gallen materialise, it would mark his first step outside Spain and could prove a pivotal moment in shaping his career trajectory, continental reputation and long-term potential.
