Feyenoord are poised to finalise the loan transfer of 19-year-old Ghanaian attacker Ibrahim Osman from Brighton & Hove Albion.
Both clubs have reached an agreement in principle for the loan deal, which will see Osman join the Rotterdammers without an option to buy.
The temporary move is expected to proceed swiftly, as all preliminary arrangements have been completed. Osman is anticipated to fill the void left by Calvin Stengs, who is heading to Charlotte FC.
The young forward’s arrival aligns with Feyenoord’s strategy to bolster their attacking options for the new season.
Brighton previously acquired Osman from FC Nordsjaelland for €19.5 million, and his current market value is estimated at €12 million according to Transfermarkt.

Despite his high potential, Osman has only featured for 119 minutes in Brighton’s pre-season matches, with the club having a surplus of attacking options.
The Premier League side has been open to Osman’s temporary departure as they navigate a busy transfer window. Once final details are settled, Osman is expected to travel to Rotterdam to complete his move to Feyenoord.
