Turkish Super Lig side Galatasaray are still pressing on in their pursuit of Super Eagles and Club Brugge midfielder Raphael Onyedika, Soccernet.ng reports.
The 24-year-old is one of the most sought-after Nigerian stars in Europe, and has attracted the interest of several clubs over the course of the transfer window.
With the summer window coming to a close in under 36 hours, it has been reported that Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt have registered interest in Onyedika.

According to Belgian outlet Voetbal Primeur, French Ligue 1 side Monaco are also considering an offer for the former FC Midtjylland midfielder.
However, none of these offers are of concrete substance at the moment. Soccernet.ng previously reported that Onyedika said ‘yes’ to Galatasaray, and it appears the Turkish side are the only club to have lodged an offer for the 17-cap Super Eagles star.
Raphael Onyedika says yes to Galatasaray.
24y/o midfielder wants to join Osimhen at Istanbul.
Club Brugge wants €25m, but Galatasaray offer €5m loan plus a mandatory €15m buy option.
Personal terms, not a problem.— Fola Guerreiro (@folahan_jnr) August 29, 2025
Soccer Frankfurt not keen on Onyedika
As per Bundesliga expert Christopher Michel, the Club Brugge midfielder isn’t a topic at the Commerzbank Arena, although a late transfer could happen if the Eagles pitch an offer in the remaining hours of the summer transfer window.
Concerning Club Brugge and Galatasaray, the Belgian side are demanding 25 million euros for Onyedika, while Galatasaray plans to finish the transfer with a two-stage offer.
Okan Buruk’s side instead submitted a loan offer of €5m, including a mandatory purchase option of €15m to be paid at the end of next season.
