Nigerian international attracts Premier League interest following impressive Championship campaign and Unity Cup exploits.
Hull City are reportedly considering a move for Super Eagles winger Femi Azeez following the attacker’s impressive campaign with Millwall and his eye-catching displays for Nigeria at the Unity Cup.
Azeez enjoyed the most productive season of his career in the Championship, finishing the 2025-26 campaign with 11 goals and eight assists in 37 appearances as Millwall secured a place in the promotion play-offs. His performances established him as one of the club’s standout attacking players and attracted attention from clubs monitoring emerging talent ahead of the new season.
The 25-year-old also enhanced his growing reputation on the international stage during Nigeria’s Unity Cup triumph. Making a strong impression for the Super Eagles, Azeez contributed two goals and one assist, performances that further strengthened his profile among clubs searching for attacking reinforcements.
Interest in the winger is not new. Reports indicate that Ipswich Town previously saw a bid worth £20 million turned down after earning promotion, while Millwall are believed to value the Nigerian at around £30 million. Those figures underline the Championship club’s determination to retain one of their prized assets.
With two years still remaining on his contract, Millwall are not under immediate pressure to negotiate a sale and are expected to maintain a firm stance if formal offers arrive during the transfer window.
There has been no indication that Azeez is actively seeking an exit from The Den. However, the opportunity to compete in the Premier League could prove difficult for any ambitious player to ignore should concrete interest materialise.
For now, Hull City’s reported interest remains at an early stage, with no official bid confirmed. Whether the Tigers are prepared to meet Millwall’s valuation could determine if the speculation develops into one of the notable transfer stories involving a Nigerian player this summer.
