The race to secure the signature of Millwall’s standout winger, Femi Azeez, has intensified, with Sunderland emerging as the newest Premier League club to register their interest. According to reports, the Black Cats have entered the fray, adding to an already impressive list of top-flight admirers.
Azeez, who is 24 years old, has had a stellar season in the Championship, finding the back of the net 11 times and providing assists on eight occasions in 37 league appearances for the Lions. His consistent displays earned him a spot in the Championship Team of the Season, further boosting his reputation as one of the second tier’s most exciting talents.
Earlier links highlighted interest from several Premier League clubs, including Everton, Brentford, Crystal Palace, Brighton, and Fulham. Now, Sunderland have joined the chase, indicating the widespread appeal of the former Reading academy product.
Millwall, however, are under no pressure to sell and are expected to hold out for a significant offer. Reports suggest that the club will only entertain bids in the region of €20 million for the in-form winger, a price tag that reflects his growing value in the transfer market.
