Roggerio Nyakossi, a 22-year-old Swiss-Togolese defender for OH Leuven, has attracted interest from multiple clubs. A list of interested Premier League clubs includes Crystal Palace, Chelsea FC, Fulham FC, West Ham United, and Everton FC. Liverpool FC is also reportedly interested in him. A suggested transfer fee is around 8 million pounds, which is equivalent to over 9 million euros. A potential transfer is complicated by a buy-back option held by his former club, Olympique Marseille. An agreement on personal terms would still be required even if the option is triggered, and it is not known if Nyakossi is interested in a return to Marseille.
The defender has 8 caps for Switzerland's U21 team. He joined OH Leuven in January 2025, and his contract is valid until June 2027. This season, he has scored 3 goals in 19 Jupiler Pro League appearances. Transfermarkt lists his current market value at €2.50m. His transfer to Leuven was for a fee that was reportedly between €800k and €1M. According to reports from January 2026, bids of €1.8M and €2M were rejected in previous transfer windows.
