Summer loan signing at Amedspor of Turkey, Gift Orban is edging closer to a full contract with the Super Lig rookies, following his burst of goals that have drawn him level with Egyptian icon Mohamed Salah, atop this season’s scorers’ chart.

Sports247 gathered that Orban only needs to score ten goals for Amedspor, and the newcomers would automatically activate a clause in their agreement with TSG Hoffenheim of Germany to keep the former Olympique Lyon of France hitman.
Orban, who has seven goals and two assists in six Turkish Süper Lig games, is currently the joint-top scorer with Salah, who now plays for Trabzonspor, and the 24-year-old Nigerian has every reason to maintain his prolific form in order to get a full transfer at Amedspor.
The history-chasing club’s president, Nahit Eren confirmed that the striker needs just three more goals to activate the mandatory clause, as he told GZT, “We loaned Gift Orban for €500,000, not €1m. If he scores 10 goals, the mandatory purchase option will be activated.”
Sports247 gathered that the unfolding development is a major boost for the dreadlocks-wearing Orban, whose mother is Togolese but he hails from Benue State, and he got his career breakthrough while playing for AA Gent of Belgium.
