Nigerian midfielder Frank Onyeka’s future remains uncertain as Bundesliga club Augsburg has yet to begin talks regarding a contract extension.
Onyeka joined Augsburg on loan from Premier League side Brentford during the winter transfer window and has delivered consistent performances throughout his spell in Germany.

His performances have earned him praise from fans and coaches alike, leaving many to wonder if Augsburg will eventually make a move to sign him permanently.
As the summer transfer window approaches, Onyeka’s future hangs in the balance.
