Trabzonspor Rejects €11 million Offer for Onuachu

Trabzonspor has rejected an €11 million bid for Super Eagles striker Paul Onuachu, Completesports.com reports.

According to Turkish outlet takagazete, the offer came from a Saudi Arabian club.

Onuachu, who was joint top scorer in the Turkish Super Lig last season, has drawn interest from several Saudi teams.

The Trabzonspor hierarchy could be tempted to sell the striker if a substantial offer materialises.

Al‑Ahli of the Saudi Pro League reportedly turned down a bid for the former FC Midtjylland forward during the January transfer window.

Trabzonspor Want More Money For Onuachu

President Ertuğrul Doğan recently said the club has received offers for seven players, but only one or two are likely to be sold.

Ivory Coast international Christ Inao Oulaï, Felipe Augusto are reportedly among those being considered for departure.

Head coach Fatih Tekke is also said to be open to Onuachu’s exit, as the club looks to recruit a more mobile striker.

Successful Return To Papara Park

After a successful loan spell at Trabzonspor during the 2023/24 season, Onuachu returned on a permanent deal last summer.

He finished his first season with the Black Sea Storm on 22 goals, sharing the league’s top scorer title with Eldor Shomurodov, and became the sixth player in the club’s history to achieve the feat.

Onuachu was the hero for Trabzonspor in last month’s Turkish Cup final, scoring both goals in their 2‑1 victory over Konyaspor.
