Responding to the transfer speculations, Osayi-Samuel told Turkish TV channel NTV, “I am currently a Fenerbahçe player. I don’t listen to the gossip. My job is to focus on where I am. I am completely dedicated to Fenerbahçe. I believe in our coach, and it makes me feel like he believes in me too.”
Having signed a four-and-a-half-year deal with Fenerbahce in January 2021, Osayi-Samuel is under contract with the club until June 2025.
