According to Completesports, Serie A team Udinese is keen on signing Nigerian striker Rafiu Durosinmi. Livesport reports that Durosinmi is viewed as a perfect substitute for Lorenzo Lucca, who has signed with Napoli. The 22-year-old has one year remaining on his contract with Viktoria Plzen from the Czech Republic. Additionally, there’s a mention of the upcoming NFL preseason game between the New Orleans Saints and the L.A. Chargers, hinting at an interesting quarterback competition. Transfermarkt currently estimates the striker’s market value at €7 million. Udinese is looking for a strong centre-forward to improve their attacking options, and acquiring Durosinmi is part of a larger plan to bolster their offensive lineup. This endeavor is consistent with the club’s ongoing strategy to refresh their roster, which includes discussions with other important players to increase their competitiveness in upcoming seasons. The Zebras already have another Nigerian, Maduka Okoye, in their team.
