Nigeria striker Paul Onuachu is expected to leave Turkish Super Lig side Trabzonspor this summer, sources have told Footy-Africa.
The 32-year-old enjoyed an impressive 2025-26 campaign, finishing as the joint top scorer in the Turkish top flight and helping Trabzonspor win the Turkish Cup.
Sources close to the player say both Onuachu and the club have accepted that a summer departure is increasingly likely, although his next destination has yet to be determined.
The former Southampton forward has attracted interest from a number of clubs, including Saudi Pro League side Al Ahli.
Al Ahli are understood to have had a €20m (£17m) offer rejected by Trabzonspor, but are expected to return with an improved bid before the transfer window closes.

Trabzonspor are in a strong negotiating position after signing Onuachu from Southampton for a relatively modest fee and could stand to make a significant profit on the Nigeria international.
Despite the growing speculation, Onuachu has not pushed for a move and remains a popular figure among supporters and within the club.
However, he would be open to leaving should Trabzonspor receive an offer that matches their valuation.
With more than two months remaining in the transfer window, the Turkish club are under no immediate pressure to sell.
Onuachu scored 26 goals in all competitions last season, including 22 in the Super Lig, underlining his importance to Trabzonspor’s successful campaign.
