Vince Osuji, the highly-rated Nigerian center-back, is on the verge of joining Belgian giants Club Brugge.
Currently in Bruges, the 18-year-old is undergoing a medical examination, paving the way for a landmark transfer.
Kalmar FF, the Allsvenskan club nurturing Osuji’s talent, is set to cash in on this lucrative deal, expected to bring in approximately €3.49 million. This figure rivals Kalmar’s historic 2007 transfer of Ari Ferreira to AZ Alkmaar, though Osuji’s move will yield the club its highest net profit ever.
If finalized, Osuji will sign a multi-year contract with Club Brugge, a club renowned for competing in European tournaments and developing young talent. The transfer underscores the Småland outfit’s ability to nurture top-class players despite competing in a relatively modest league.
Osuji’s potential move to Club Brugge is poised to further elevate his burgeoning career while cementing Kalmar FF’s reputation as a springboard for international football success.
