Belgian Pro League side Club Brugge has set its sights on Nigerian striker Etiosa Ighodaro as a potential replacement for their top scorer Igor Thiago, who is poised for a move to the Premier League at the end of the season.
With Thiago’s departure looming, Brugge is on the hunt for a new striker, and Ighodaro has emerged as a leading candidate for the role.
Currently on loan at SuperSport United from Mamelodi Sundowns, the 22-year-old has garnered attention for his performances. His loan spells at TUKS and Chippa United have further showcased his talent and potential.
Club Brugge is expected to initiate discussions with Mamelodi Sundowns in the coming days to explore the possibility of acquiring Ighodaro’s services.
Notable Nigerian players such as Daniel Amokachi, Emmanuel Dennis, and David Okereke have previously played and worn the Club Brugge jersey, adding to the love of the club for Nigerian talents.
As Brugge prepares for a potential transfer, all eyes will be on whether they can secure Ighodaro’s signature to bolster their attacking options for the upcoming season.
