Queens Park Rangers star Bright Osayi-Samuel has been backed to break the Turkish transfer record should he move to Fenerbahce.

Osayi-Samuel has been in solid form again for the Rs this season, with three goals and three assists in 21 games thus far.

That has reignited interest in the forward, who was heavily linked with a move away from Queens Park Rangers in the summer transfer window.

That speculation has only been added to by his contract situation, with his current deal set to expire in the summer and no sign of an extension happening at QPR.

Reports in England have seen him linked with a move to Turkey, with claims that he has already signed a pre-contract agreement with Fenerbahce to make the move on a free transfer in the summer.

The links to Fenerbahce are nothing new, with Osayi-Samuel having been linked in December 2019 as well.

His former agent has now confirmed he offered him at the time and backed the QPR man to make a big impression should he make the move.

“Towards the end of 2019, when I learned that Fenerbahce was looking for such a player, I presented the name Osayi for the first time,” he told Asist Analiz. 

“Of course, he was not transferred… but the scout teams of Fenerbahce, working in a very professional structure, continued to watch the player.

“We stopped working with the player’s British manager last summer. We have transferred the case to the relevant people at Fenerbahce, but I do not have any information. 

“In addition, since I know that the goals of the player are great, I predict that if he comes here, he will break the country record and transfer from Fenerbahce to the big teams of Europe.
