Nigeria striker Muhamed Tijani is being linked with a move from Slavia Praha to Hungarian top-flight side Újpest FC, according to transfer speculation in Central Europe.
The 25-year-old centre-forward, who stands at 1.91m and prefers his right foot, is currently listed with Hungarian club Nyíregyháza Spartacus, but the latest rumours centre on a possible switch from parent club Slavia Praha to Újpest in the NB I. Reporting around the deal lists the probability of the transfer as “?” with no formal agreement yet in place.
Tijani’s market value is estimated at €400,000 on Transfermarkt, a fee that would represent a relatively low-risk addition for Újpest as they look to strengthen their attacking options. With his contract situation not publicly detailed and no expiry date recorded, there remains the prospect he could become a free agent in the near future, a factor that often influences how hard clubs push to get a deal done or wait for a potential free transfer if a contract has expired.
Born on 26 July 2000, Tijani has been deployed primarily as an out‑and‑out centre-forward throughout his senior career. He is registered with the Hungarian side Nyíregyháza Spartacus, where he wears the number 26 shirt, and his performances there have helped maintain his valuation in the mid-range for strikers operating in Eastern Europe’s top leagues.
Recent competitive outings for Nyíregyháza in the Hungarian system have underlined his role as a physical focal point in attack, though detailed individual match statistics and goal returns around specific fixtures are not disclosed in the available data.
With Újpest looking to climb the NB I table and Slavia Praha traditionally operating shrewdly in the transfer market, any move – whether for a fee close to €400k or as a potential free agent later on – could offer Tijani a platform to re-establish himself at a higher level and shape the next decisive phase of his career in European football.
