Millwall FC have reportedly rejected a €20 million bid from Ipswich Town FC for Nigerian winger Femi Azeez.
The rejection follows an impressive season from the 24-year-old in the Sky Bet Championship.
Azeez Enjoyed Breakout Championship Campaign
Azeez emerged as one of Millwall’s standout performers during the 2025/26 campaign.
The winger recorded 11 goals and eight assists in 37 appearances across all competitions for the Lions.
His performances also earned him a place in the Championship Team of the Season.
Millwall Holding Out for Bigger Offer
According to reports, Millwall are demanding a higher transfer fee before considering any move for the Nigerian attacker.
The club reportedly views Azeez as one of their most valuable assets heading into the new season.
Interest in the winger has continued to grow following his strong performances in England’s second division.
Premier League Clubs Monitoring Situation
In addition to Ipswich Town’s approach, several Premier League clubs are also believed to be monitoring Azeez ahead of the summer transfer window.
The former Reading FC player still has two years remaining on his current contract with Millwall.
That contractual position is expected to strengthen Millwall’s bargaining power in negotiations.
Nigerian Winger’s Stock Continues to Rise
Azeez’s rise has attracted attention among football analysts who believe the winger could soon secure a move to the Premier League.
His pace, creativity and attacking contributions have made him one of the most talked-about Nigerian players in the Championship this season.
More transfer developments are expected in the coming weeks as clubs continue preparations for the new campaign.
