Former Leeds United star Carlton Palmer believes Super Eagles right-back Bright Osayi-Samuel would be a perfect signing for Premier League clubs.
Softfootball notes that the Nigerian international has continued to attract attention because of his pace, energy, versatility, and attacking threat from the right flank.
Palmer made this known in an interview with Football League World, where he praised Osayi-Samuel’s development since leaving English football for Turkey.
The 26-year-old currently plays for Fenerbahce, where he has been used mainly as a full-back. However, Palmer pointed out that Osayi-Samuel started his career as a winger during his time at QPR, which explains his ability to attack space and cause problems for defenders.
According to Palmer, Osayi-Samuel has plenty of energy and unpredictability, qualities that would make him useful to clubs in England.
He also believes the defender could be a strong option for Norwich City if they decided to bring him back to English football.
Since joining Fenerbahce, Osayi-Samuel has won a cup and helped the club compete consistently near the top of the Turkish league.
