Red-hot Nigerian striker Ekigho Ehiosun has turned down a potentially lucrative switch to Mamelodi Sundowns as he is eying a move to Europe.

Ehiosun, 22, has hit five goals in six senior appearances for Nigeria, prompting interest from the South African PSL side, who sent a scout to Abeokuta to monitor the forward and table an offer.

But sources close to the player told KickOffNigeria.com they were only interested in a move to Europe, with interest coming in from French champions Lille, Dutch giants Ajax Amsterdam and an unnamed Turkish Super Lig club.

The Warri Wolves striker himself tells KickOffNigeria.com he was in no hurry to leave Nigeria.

"My agent told me about the offer from Sundowns, but there have been good interest from Europe and I think I will wait for that. For now, my focus is to help Warri Wolves in the League and to do my best to help the Super Eagles qualify for the Nations Cup," Ehiosun said.
