Nigeria winger Yira Sor joins Turkish club Amedspor from KRC Genk

Nigerian winger Yira Sor has completed his transfer to Turkish Super Lig club Amedspor, joining from Belgian Pro League side KRC Genk. Sor made 28 appearances in Belgium's top flight last season, scoring four goals and providing one assist. Amedspor earned promotion to the Turkish top flight last season and now welcome their second Nigerian signing this month after forward Gift Orban arrived earlier in August. The move was reported by DAILY POST on August 10, 2026.

This transfer underscores the steady flow of Nigerian talent seeking opportunities in European leagues and signals Amedspor's intent to strengthen their squad ahead of their maiden top-flight campaign. For Sor, the move offers a new platform to impress Super Eagles selectors and potentially secure more regular international appearances.

Fans can follow Sor's performances in the Turkish Super Lig as the season kicks off, and watch whether his adaptation to a new league translates into increased goal contributions and national team recall.
