Queens Park Rangers have rejected an offer of £3m for winger Bright Osayi-Samuel from Club Brugge.
The 22-year-old has been a revelation for the R’s this season, scoring five goals and providing eight assists for Mark Warburton’s men to help the team to within six points of the play-off places.
However, such form has attracted attention, with West Brom believed to have shown an interest in Osayi-Samuel back in January. But, the Belgian champions have firmed up their interest with a bid, as Sky Sports revealed QPR turned down an opening £3m bid.
Will Bright Osayi-Samuel be a QPR player next season?
Yes
No
Whether they return with another offer remains to be seen, although the report states that West Ham and Norwich are also monitoring the former Blackpool man.

So, some R’s supporters will be worried about the chances of keeping Osayi-Samuel at the club next season, particularly as he is approaching the final 12 months of his contract. Nevertheless, if he does go they will expect a much bigger fee than £3m.
Here we look at some of the reaction to the offer from Club Brugge…
Obviously they’ve been on the Belgium beers with that bid.

3mil is embarrassing

If he doesn’t sign a new contract then we’ll have no choice but to accept a decent offer. £3m though is a joke
