Hull City leads race for Nigeria winger Femi Azeez as Millwall asks £15m

Hull City are leading the chase to sign Nigeria international winger Femi Azeez from Millwall, according to the Daily Post. The 25‑year‑old, who has two years left on his Championship contract, was previously linked with Premier League newcomers Ipswich Town as well as Bournemouth and Brighton & Hove Albion. Millwall are reported to be holding out for a fee of no less than £15 million for the player, who contributed 11 goals and eight assists in 37 appearances across all competitions last season.

For Nigerian football fans, the interest highlights the growing demand for Nigerian talent in European leagues and could affect Azeez’s availability for national team duties if a move to a higher‑tier club increases his exposure. Hull City supporters may see him as a potential boost to the team’s attacking options ahead of the new Championship season.

If the transfer materialises, fans should watch how quickly Azeez adapts to Hull’s style and what impact his goal‑scoring record has on the team’s performance. For those following the transfer market, the £15 million asking price sets a benchmark for similar wingers in the second tier. Keep an eye on official club announcements for any confirmed fee or personal terms.
