Southampton defeated Leeds United 1-0 in the playoffs to secure promotion to the English Premiership after a year of exile in the Championship.
According to GMS, Southampton head coach Martin Russell has no plans to include Onuachu in his squad in the future.
Due to concerns over his playing time, Onuachu left Southampton for Turkish side Trabzonspor last summer on a season-long loan which paid off for the 30-year-old striker as he became a fan favorite with his impressive scoring skills. score goals.
He scored 17 goals and provided four assists in 26 appearances for Trabzonspor, which proved crucial in securing third place in the Super Lig.
Onuachu’s agent, Resat Can Ozbudak, had announced that the forward does not wish to return to Southampton, although the club is demanding 11 million euros for his transfer, which could be an obstacle for Trabzonspor.
“We will meet and talk to Paul soon,” Ozbudak told Sports Digitale. “He wants Trabzonspor. He loves Türkiye. He does not want to return to England.”
“We are waiting for Southampton, because they need to reach an agreement with Southampton on loan or transfer.”
If Onuachu remains at Trabzonspor, they will participate in next season’s UEFA Europa League after finishing third in the Turkish league.
