Muhamed Tijani: Újpest linked with move for Nigerian forward from Slavia Praha

Újpest FC have been linked with a move for Nigerian centre-forward Muhamed Tijani, who is currently on the books of Czech side Slavia Praha.

The 25-year-old, listed with a market value of €400,000 on Transfermarkt, is the subject of fresh speculation over a switch from the Czech Chance Liga to the Hungarian top flight, NB I. The reported probability of the transfer remains unclear, with the move currently marked only as “?” in the latest data.

Tijani, a 1.91m right-footed striker, is registered as a centre-forward and is noted for his physical presence at the top end of the pitch. Born on 26 July 2000, the Nigerian attacker is in the stage of his career where regular top-flight minutes could prove decisive for his development and profile.

While he is currently listed as playing for Nyíregyháza Spartacus and wearing the number 26 shirt, the transfer link concerns his status at Slavia Praha, with no firm contract expiry date recorded. That absence of information over the length of his deal has fuelled suggestions that he could yet be available as a free agent if his contract situation is not clarified, potentially making any switch more straightforward for Újpest.

Tijani’s recent campaign details and individual match statistics have not been formally updated in the latest scrape of data, meaning there are no verified figures for goals or assists in his most recent outings. However, his valuation at €400k reflects a player still regarded as having room to grow in European football.

With Újpest seeking to strengthen their attacking options in NB I, a successful move to Budapest could offer Tijani a fresh platform to reassert himself in a competitive league and shape the next phase of his career in European football.
