Following earlier reports of interest from several Ligue 1 clubs, including LOSC Lille and Lens, Trabzonspor is now reportedly pursuing Wolfsberger AC defender Chibuike Nwaiwu. The Süper Lig club is making intensive efforts to sign the 22-year-old Nigerian, who joined the Austrian club in September 2024 and has a contract until June 2027. His scouting team has been observing him for some time and a move could potentially be made in the winter. The Turkish source, "Taka Gazete," has reported that Wolfsberger AC is demanding a transfer fee of 10 million euros. This season, Nwaiwu has made 12 appearances in the Austrian Bundesliga. Transfermarkt estimates his current market value to be €7.00m; his value was €3 million in June 2025.
