Super Eagles prospect? Ayaosi’s breakout season sparks Viktoria Plzen, Slavia Prague interest

Emmanuel Ayaosi produced one of his best displays of the season at the weekend, providing two assists as MFK Karvina came from behind to beat Slovan Liberec 3-1 in the Czech top flight, Soccernet.ng reports.

The 21-year-old Nigerian winger played the full match and was at the heart of everything positive for his side, especially after they went a goal down early on.

Liberec took the lead inside four minutes through Raimonds Krollis, but Karvina responded quickly and gradually took control of the game. Ayaosi’s real impact came in the second half. With the score level and the visitors reduced to 10 men, he showed composure and vision to change the match.

First, in the 67th minute, he picked out Aboubacar Traoré with a well-weighted pass that split the defence and led to Karvina’s second goal. Then, ten minutes later, he delivered again, this time setting up Pavel Kacor with another precise assist to seal the victory.

It was a performance built on awareness, timing and creativity. Ayaosi constantly found space in wide areas, drove at defenders and made smart decisions in the final third. His ability to deliver accurate passes under pressure stood out, and he finished the game as the main difference between the two teams.

That display adds to what has already been a strong campaign. Ayaosi now has six goals and six assists in 27 league matches this season. He has become one of Karvina’s most reliable attacking players, capable of both scoring and creating chances.

Ayaosi: From steady growth to rising demand

Ayaosi’s journey to this point has been one of steady development. He began his professional career in Nigeria with Dakkada FC before making the move to Europe, joining Karvina’s system.

Like many young players adapting to a new environment, he started with the club’s reserve side, learning the demands of European football in the Czech third tier.

Those early years were about patience and improvement. He was used sparingly at first when he stepped up to the senior team, often coming off the bench. But over time, his confidence grew, and so did his influence.

This season has marked a clear breakthrough. Ayaosi is no longer just a squad player, he is now a regular starter, trusted to play full matches and deliver in key moments. His numbers reflect that progress, but so does his overall performance level, with consistent displays and growing tactical maturity.

Unsurprisingly, his form has caught the interest of bigger clubs. Czech giants Viktoria Plzen are believed to be leading the race for his signature, with Slavia Prague also monitoring his development closely. There are also reports of interest from clubs outside the Czech Republic, particularly teams looking for quick, creative wide players.

With his market value rising to around €2 million and the summer transfer window approaching, Ayaosi could be set for the next step in his career. If his current form continues, a move to a bigger club looks increasingly likely.

For now, though, his focus remains on finishing the season strongly with Karvina, while quietly building a reputation as one of Nigeria’s most promising young talents in Europe.

And should a move to a more reputable club materialise, Ayaosi could be one step closer to fulfilling his dream of playing for Nigeria's Super Eagles.
