Manchester City FC and Nigeria striker Olanrewaju Kayode have been linked with a loan move away from La Liga club Girona to Bursaspor in Turkey. Kayode is on loan at Girona from Manchester City, whom he joined last summer from Austria Wien for around €4m. He is one of a number of City players at sister club Girona, but the Super Eagles star may now be requesting that he be loaned to another club.

Kayode has struggled at Girona, where he has failed to score in 13 appearances, a far cry from his 37 goals in 87 games for Austria Wien.

 

Now, Spox.com are claiming via Diari de Girona that Turkish club Bursaspor are seriously interested in a loan move for the striker.

 

Bursaspor, who already have Nigeria stars William Troost-Ekong and Mikel Agu in their squad, were reportedly interested in Kayode last summer before he opted for the City move and Girona loan.

 

A move to Bursaspor and a goal-scoring revival could win a spot in the Super Eagles Russia 2018 World Cup SQUAD.
