Paul Onuachu is keen on a permanent move to Trabzonspor from Southampton, as the Turkish club aims to secure the services of the Nigerian striker permanently this summer, According Sports Extra reports.
Southampton, who were promoted back to the Premier League last season, have been in talks to offload several players loaned out during their Championship campaign. Among these players is Onuachu, who spent last season on loan at Trabzonspor.
Trabzonspor have been working diligently to secure Onuachu’s services, with their latest offer reported to be €6m plus a sell-on clause.
The club’s manager, Abdullah Avci, recently revealed that discussions with Onuachu have been positive, with the 30-year-old expressing a desire to return to the Turkish side.
“We spoke to Paul Onuachu three or four days ago; he also wants to be with us,” Avci was quoted as saying by A Spor.
“As of now, I cannot say it (a deal) is done or not; the president is working hard on this issue. We will be a little patient.”
Onuachu’s impressive performances in Turkey have also attracted interests from other Turkish clubs, including Besiktas, Fenerbahce, and Southampton’s sister club, Goztepe. Despite this, Trabzonspor appear to be in pole position to secure his signature.
