The transfer director for 21-time Swiss champions Basel attended the Ferencváros–ZTE Magyar Kupa final to observe 19-year-old Nigerian centre-back Akpe Victory. Informal discussions have already occurred between the clubs, but the Swiss side has not yet submitted an official offer. The defender is also reportedly being monitored by clubs in Spain and Germany. The Portuguese press has reported on interest from Benfica, and an English journalist noted interest from the Scottish club Rangers. Victory joined Zalaegerszegi in January 2026, and his contract is valid until June 30, 2028. His current market value on Transfermarkt is €100k. In May 2026, reports indicated Rangers were considering a bid that would be in excess of €5m, while in the same month Benfica's interest was linked to a potential investment of approximately five million euros.
