Tri-national central defender Emmanuel Fejokwu has ended his association with Premier League club West Ham United ahead of the 2026/27 season.
Fejokwu, who is eligible to represent Nigeria, the Netherlands and England at international level, has already featured for the youth teams of both European nations.
According to The Talent Hunter, the highly rated defender has departed West Ham amid strong interest from several top clubs across Europe.
Among the clubs monitoring his situation are Ajax, Utrecht, PSV Eindhoven, Inter Milan, AC Milan, Club Brugge, FC Copenhagen and Bayer Leverkusen.
Fejokwu’s Dutch passport makes him eligible to complete a move to another European club, having turned 16 in April 2026.
During his final season with the Hammers, the young centre-back featured for the academy teams in the U18 Premier League, FA Youth Cup Cup and U21 Premier League International Cup.
He made 14 appearances across the competitions and scored one goal.
The teenager also made headlines by starting against Borussia Dortmund in the Premier League International Cup at just 15 years old, underlining his potential and attracting further attention from clubs across the continent.
Fejokwu is one of at least two Nigeria-eligible teenagers set to leave the London Stadium this summer, with West Ham confirming through their released list that midfielder Tyron Akpata will not be offered a new contract.
