Philip Porwei Otele
Philip Otele attacks space down the left, runs beyond the line and threatens the back post. In 2023–24 he finished top scorer for CFR Cluj with 18 goals. Otele headlines the CFR Cluj attack. In July 2024 he moved to Al Wahda for €3.5 million, then joined FC Basel on loan in January 2025. The move became permanent in July 2025, and Basel won the Swiss Super League title in 2024–25. He has since appeared in UEFA Champions League qualifying and the Europa League with Basel. Philip Otele presses high, attacks space, and links play with quick one-touch layoffs. Internationally he is noted as a Nigeria forward.
