Red Star Belgrade are being linked with a move for Widzew Łódź winger Osman Bukari in a deal that could hinge on his contract situation in Poland.

The 27-year-old right winger, listed with dual Ghanaian and Serbian nationality, is currently on the books of Ekstraklasa side Widzew Łódź, where he wears the number 22 shirt. Data from Transfermarkt on 28 April 2026 places his market value at €3.00m, a figure that is likely to frame early discussions over any potential transfer to the Serbian SuperLiga club.

The rumour, logged on 28 April with the probability of the move still marked as “?”, has sparked renewed scrutiny of Bukari’s status in Łódź. His contract details and expiry date are not publicly recorded, leaving open the possibility he could run down his deal and leave as a free agent, or be moved on for a fee before that scenario materialises.

Born in Accra on 13 December 1998, Bukari stands at 1.70m and is capable of operating across the attack, primarily as a right winger. Notably two-footed, he offers flexibility in wide and central areas, attributes that previously made him a key figure in Serbia and now attract attention again from Red Star.

Recent Widzew matches have underlined his importance, with Bukari featuring on the right flank in the Ekstraklasa, contributing with his pace and direct running in tight scorelines for the Polish club this spring. His performances there have helped sustain his valuation at around €3.00m despite the uncertainty surrounding his contract.

With no official bid yet confirmed and the likelihood of a deal still unclear, Bukari’s next move remains speculative, but a return to Serbia and a possible switch to Red Star would represent a significant step that could reshape the next phase of his career and further define his reputation in European football if it comes to pass.
