After a stellar 2024/25 campaign with Club Brugge, both domestically and in the UEFA Champions League, Onyedika’s value has skyrocketed. His strong showings in midfield—and consistent form with the Super Eagles—have made him one of Europe’s hottest properties.
Though Brugge are juggling interest in several of their top players, including Ferran Jutgla, Maxim De Cuyper, and Christos Tzolis, it’s Onyedika who’s reportedly drawing the most serious attention.

Spurs Move to Hijack West Ham’s Progress
West Ham were believed to be in advanced talks to land Onyedika, eyeing him as a replacement for Tomas Soucek, who is tipped for an exit this summer. But with Tottenham now adding him to their shortlist, the deal is no longer straightforward.
A recent report from Transferfeed stated:
“Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur have added Raphael Onyedika to their shortlist. They join AC Milan and West Ham United, the latter of whom were previously believed to be close to securing his signature.”

AC Milan Still in the Mix
Serie A giants AC Milan have also shown interest, with sources suggesting they’ve been quietly tracking the Nigerian midfielder for months. However, with Premier League money and visibility now at play, Spurs and West Ham may have the edge—if Brugge are willing to sell.

What’s the Asking Price?
Despite being under contract until 2027, Onyedika is reportedly valued at around €20 million. Brugge are said to be preparing for his potential departure, having already identified Hamburg’s Ludovit Reisas a possible replacement.

Final Whistle
Raphael Onyedika’s next move is quickly becoming one of the most-watched transfer stories of the summer. With Tottenham’s late entry into the race, the Nigerian midfielder now has his pick of Europe’s elite. The big question remains: Who will win the battle for his signature—Spurs, West Ham, or Milan?
