Bright Osayi-Samuel

I have a soft spot for footballers who travel a long road, and Bright Osayi-Samuel went from Okija via Spain to Woolwich at ten before reaching the English game. A right-back who can also play winger is a coach's dream, the kind of two-way engine that quietly decides matches by covering every blade of grass. Representing Nigeria on top of his club work at Birmingham City speaks to genuine ambition, not just talent. I value grafters over flashy one-trick players, and his profile reads like a grafter who turned relentless running into a career. I'll be watching his next overlapping run with real interest.
