It was gathered further that the former FC Ebedei of Sagamu and FC Midtjylland of Denmark striker, who previously top scorer in Belgium during his days with Racing Genk, is thinking fondly about a deal in the oil rich country.
It could be the beginning of a winding down process for the 31-year-old product of Young Stars FC of Satellite Town, Lagos, especially as Al-Ahli are reportedly ready to give him a salary worth three times his current earnings.
A report by Turkish outlet, Dik Futbol adds, “Onuachu finished the season as the (Turkish Super) league’s joint-top scorer with 22 goals, sharing the honour with Istanbul Basaksehir forward Eldor Shomurodov.
“His impressive form has attracted interest from Saudi Pro League club Al-Ahli and a number of Bundesliga sides. Although Trabzonspor are keen to keep the striker, the club could consider offers close to their €15 million asking price.”
