Snubbed by Nigeria, Wanted in Belgium

Coach Aliyu Zubairu excluded Akinfenwa from both the WAFU qualifiers and the ongoing U20 AFCON in Egypt.

While this decision may have shocked fans, it hasn’t slowed his momentum.

Instead, his omission appears to have cleared the path for European opportunities.

The Nigerian football prospect has drawn the attention of clubs in the Belgian Pro League, highlighting how quickly fortunes can change in the world of football.

Union St. Gilloise Leads the Race

Union St. Gilloise (USG) is currently leading the race for the Musa Oluwayesi Akinfenwa transfer.

Known for nurturing Nigerian talents—most notably Victor Boniface, who moved from USG to Bayer Leverkusen—the club is looking to repeat history with Akinfenwa.

Reports confirm that personal terms have been agreed between the player and USG, and discussions with Real Sapphire are progressing steadily.

Preparing for a Seamless Transition

While waiting for his 18th birthday in September, USG plans to integrate Akinfenwa into their B team setup.

The club is also working on securing a work permit, a key step toward completing the deal.

This methodical approach shows just how highly they value the young Nigerian forward.

Anderlecht Challenges USG’s Bid

The Anderlecht transfer target has also caught the attention of Belgium’s most decorated club.

Anderlecht is said to be working behind the scenes to persuade Akinfenwa to choose their offer over USG’s.

This tug-of-war between two of Belgium’s elite teams underlines the high demand for the promising winger.

The Road Ahead for Akinfenwa

Even though he was left out of the Flying Eagles squad, Musa Oluwayesi Akinfenwa is proving that talent transcends setbacks.

His name is now associated with some of the top names in Belgian football, and his development will be closely monitored by fans and scouts alike.

As the Musa Oluwayesi Akinfenwa transfer edges closer to completion, football fans in Nigeria and across Europe are keeping a keen eye on the next steps of this exciting journey.
