Super Eagles Midfielder Frank Onyeka Linked with La Liga Move, Valencia Leading the Chase
Super Eagles battling midfielder Frank Onyeka is attracting interest from La Liga clubs, with Valencia CF emerging as a strong candidate for his signature.
The Nigerian international, currently contracted to Brentford FC, spent last season on loan at Bundesliga side FC Augsburg, and his future with the Premier League club remains uncertain.
According to The Telegraph columnist Mike McGrath, Valencia CF has opened formal talks with Brentford FC regarding a potential deal for Onyeka.
The Spanish club is aiming to strengthen its midfield ahead of the 2025/2026 season and is prioritising cost-effective options such as loan deals or free transfers, making Onyeka an appealing target.
Onyeka, 27, is seeking a move that will offer him consistent playing time, crucial as he looks to maintain his spot in Nigeria’s squad for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
While his loan spell at Bundesliga side Augsburg provided valuable minutes, the midfielder is now in search of a more stable environment where he can feature regularly.
His performances for Brentford FC and during his time in Germany have highlighted his work ethic, ball recovery skills, and tactical discipline, making him a valuable asset in midfield.
