Nigerian international defender Kenneth Omeruo has emerged as a transfer target for Romanian champions CFR Cluj, following his departure from Turkish Super Lig side Kasimpasa earlier this year.
The 31-year-old center-back, who has been without a club since February when his contract with Kasimpasa was terminated by mutual consent, is now weighing his options as he looks to continue his professional career.
According to transfermarkt, CFR Cluj has expressed significant interest in securing the services of the experienced defender. The Romanian outfit is one of the country's most successful clubs, having claimed eight league titles in their history.
Multiple Options for Omeruo
While the Romanian champions are keen on adding Omeruo to their squad, they are not the only ones pursuing the Nigerian defender. Reports indicate that several clubs in Turkey, where Omeruo has previously played, as well as teams from Major League Soccer (MLS) in the United States, have also shown interest in signing him.
Omeruo brings considerable European experience to the table, having previously featured for clubs in the Netherlands, England, and Spain during his career. His wealth of experience at both club and international level makes him an attractive prospect for teams looking to strengthen their defensive options.
The defender, who has been a regular fixture in Nigeria's national team setup, will be hoping to secure a move that allows him to maintain his form and continue representing the Super Eagles in international competitions.
For CFR Cluj, acquiring a player of Omeruo's caliber would represent a significant coup as they look to maintain their dominance in Romanian football and make an impact in European competitions.
