Nathan Tella spent his formative years in England, and he could be on his way back after three years in Germany
Super Eagles attacker Nathan Tella has emerged as a transfer target for five English Premier League clubs Brighton, Nottingham Forest, Leeds United, Burnley, and Brentford, Soccernet.ng reports.
Tella has spent the last two years with German Bundesliga club Bayer Leverkusen, joining from Southampton in a €23.3 million deal.
Since moving to the former Bundesliga champions, he has failed to establish himself as a regular starter. He has had flashes of brilliance, but he has failed to produce a run of impressive performances.
Under former coach Xabi Alonso, Tella was deployed across different positions on the pitch, and that affected his performances.
However, under the new coach Erik Ten Hag, his situation has improved a bit, as he is now being used as a winger.
Meanwhile, even though he has not been great at Bayer Leverkusen, Tella has attracted interest from some Premier League clubs like Brighton, Leeds, Burnley, Brentford, and Nottingham Forest.
According to TBR football, these Premier League sides sent theur scouts to watch the 26-year-old attacker when Bayer Leverkusen played Chelsea in a pre-season game at Stamford Bridge on Friday.

At the moment, it is unknown whether any of these clubs have made a move for Tella yet. But, they will have to make their decision quickly, as the Premier League resumes next week, and all these clubs will want to sort out their transfers as soon as possible.
What Are Nathan Tella’s Numbers at Bayer Leverkusen
Nathan Tella’s numbers at Bayer Leverkusen was metered when Xabi Alonso was coach.
In his first season with Die Werkself, he contributed 10 goals and 11 assists in 79 appearances which are decent numbers for a winger.

The Super Eagles star is quick, nifty, and can be deadly when presented with opportunities in the box.
He is currently valued at €15 million, but Bayer Leverkusen will surely demand more before they let him leave.
