According to Belgian newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws, via voetbalnieuws, Nigeria international Raphael Onyedika will almost certainly be sold in the summer transfer window.
Club Brugge have already started preparing for life without Onyedika, with the capture of FC Luzern’s Switzerland international defensive midfielder Ardon Jashari, who has signed a four-year deal with Blauw-Zwart with effect from the summer.
As per the report, the Super Eagles star was previously linked to Galatasaray and various Premier League candidates.
Club Brugge’s plan is for Jashari to permanently become the first choice holding midfielder starting next season, leading to suggestions that the sale of Onyedika is inevitable.

The Belgian giants pulled off a transfer coup when they signed the Nigerian from FC Midtjylland in 2022 for a fee in the region of ten million euros, stealing him from under the noses of AC Milan.
The 18-time Belgian champions have set a price tag for the 22-year-old, which is between ten and fifteen million euros.
Since Onyedika’s arrival at Club Brugge, he has appeared in 78 matches across all competitions, scoring one goal while providing two assists.
On the international stage, he was a member of the Super Eagles squad to the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, featuring off the bench in a group game against Guinea-Bissau.
Onyedika is under contract at Club Brugge until the end of the 2026-2027 season.
