Udinese and Isaac Success part ways after mutual contract termination
Udinese has confirmed the termination of Nigerian forward Isaac Success’ contract, ending the 27-year-old’s two-year stint with the Serie A club. The decision to part ways was made official on Tuesday, with Udinese issuing a statement on their website to announce the mutual agreement.
“An agreement for the mutual termination of the contract with football player Isaac Success has been reached,” the club stated.
“Best wishes for the future in your career and thanks for the years we spent together.”
Success, who joined Udinese from Watford in 2021, made 83 appearances across all competitions during his time with the Italian side.
Over the course of those matches, he managed to score six goals and provide 17 assists, contributing to the team’s attack.
Despite his efforts on the pitch, both parties have now decided to move in different directions as Success prepares for the next chapter of his career.
The Nigerian striker began his European career at Granada, before making the move to England, where he signed for Watford in the Sky Bet Championship.
His time at Watford was marked by both flashes of potential and injury setbacks, limiting his overall impact.
In 2021, Success made the switch to Udinese, a move that offered him a fresh start in Serie A.
While his time in Italy had its moments, Success struggled to find consistent form in front of goal.
With just six goals in 83 appearances, the forward never quite hit the heights expected of him when he first arrived at the club.
Nevertheless, his 17 assists demonstrated his value as a creative force in attack, often setting up teammates rather than finding the back of the net himself.
As Udinese now looks ahead to their upcoming season without Success, the player is expected to quickly secure a move to a new club in the coming days.
The striker has been linked with several potential suitors, and there is speculation that he could return to a different European league or even explore opportunities outside the continent.
Isaac Success’ departure marks the end of a mixed spell in Italy, but the Nigerian international still has plenty of football ahead of him.
With his next move likely to be confirmed soon, Success will be hoping to reignite his career and make a fresh impact at his new club.
For now, Udinese bids farewell to a player who, despite not reaching his full potential, contributed his share of assists and attacking play during his time in Serie A.
The club’s decision to mutually terminate the contract underscores their intent to reshape the squad ahead of the new season, while Success will now seek to find a new environment where he can reestablish himself as a key player.
