Turkish Super Lig giants Fenerbahce have reportedly summoned Bright Osayi-Samuel's agent to Turkey amid speculation linking the defender with a transfer to Championship outfit Norwich City.

The former Queens Park Rangers dazzler is being linked with a return to the Championship, with the Canaries credited with an interest.

According to multiple reports in the Turkish media, including NTVSpor, Fenerbahce have invited the agents of Ä°rfan Can Kahveci and Bright Osayi-Samuel to Istanbul for contract negotiations. 

Osayi-Samuel has roughly eight months left on his contract with the Yellow Canaries and will be available on a free transfer as things stand, meaning he can agree a lucrative pre-contract with a club as from the January transfer window.

Fenerbahce have set the ball rolling to tie him up to a new contract and have scheduled a meeting with his agent, Steven Beck in Istanbul next week.

It has been suggested that the Nigeria national team is open to extending his stay at the 19-time Turkish Super Lig champions but the stumbling block to a deal is his wage demands.

Osayi-Samuel has requested that his annual wages be increased to 2.5 million euros, while Fenerbahçe have proposed 1.5 million euros instead.

With 145 appearances under his belt, the 26-year-old is nearing a milestone of 150 games for Fenerbahçe, whom he joined from Queens Park Rangers in January 2021.
