Following the conclusion of the 2024/2025 French Ligue 1 season on Sunday, LOSC Lille has officially released Nigerian striker Chuba Akpom, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Akpom joined Lille on loan from Dutch club Ajax Amsterdam during the winter transfer window.

However, his time in France was marred by injuries and inconsistent form, limiting his impact on the team.

The club published a list of players departing at the end of the season, with Akpom among the notable names.

"As our paths separate, LOSC thanks these players for their contribution throughout their Lille adventure and wishes them the best for the rest of their careers. Good luck, gentlemen! You will always have your place in the great LOSC house," the club stated.

During his stint with Lille, Akpom made 14 appearances and scored 3 goals.

Although his loan spell at LOSC Lille ended without significant contribution due to injury, Chuba Akpom consistently displayed strong fighting spirit while representing the French club. The club’s decision to part ways with him marks a new beginning for the striker, who is now free to determine the next step in his career. In the dynamic world of football, such changes are common, just as players and fans alike often seek entertainment beyond the pitch—such as through popular online gaming platforms like Dewapoker Login which offer competitive excitement in a different format.
