Rumours about a quick exit for Osman Bukari from Widzew Łódź were intensified by Aleksandar Vuković's reluctance to use the 27-year-old, who has been linked with a return to Crvena zvezda. However, in an interview with 'Interia', club owner Robert Dobrzycki stated that Bukari will remain at Widzew Łódź and that the club plans to play with him in the next season.

Osman Bukari stated in an interview with 'Meridian Sport' that he would like to return to Crvena Zvezda. He also said that Serbia is his home and Crvena Zvezda is his club. The Serbian club is reportedly showing considerable interest in such a move. 'Meridian Sport' considers this an indication from Bukari of his approval for the transfer.

The newly crowned Serbian champions Crvena zvezda are interested in bringing back 27-year-old winger Osman Bukari, who is currently not playing a significant role at his club, Widzew Łódź. Crvena zvezda is attempting to use the player's continuously decreasing value to facilitate his return. Bukari is reportedly considered a potential high-profile summer signing to strengthen the Serbian team's squad for their Champions League campaign. While there were previous reports that Widzew wanted to end their association with the Ghanaian international, a club spokesperson later denied these, stating that no such discussions were taking place. Bukari, who has 19 caps and 3 goals for Ghana, joined the Polish club in January 2026 and has a contract until 2030. His current market value is €3.00m, according to Transfermarkt. Recent reports from April 2026 suggest Widzew Łódź expects a fee of €2.5-3 million for the player. His move from Austin to Widzew Łódź in January 2026 was reportedly for a fee between €5 million and €5.55 million, while his transfer from Crvena Zvezda to Austin in July 2024 was for a reported €7 million.
