David Akintola could leave Hull City in the next few days after he was not included in the club’s 25-man squad for the remainder of the season.
The Nigerian winger, 30, who recently rejected two moves to the Turkish Super Lig before that transfer window closed, is seeking regular playing time.
Because transfer windows in countries like Slovenia and Croatia remain open for a short period, a move abroad is possible.
A transfer to Maribor, which is owned by Tigers owner Acun Ilicali, could be an option for him to secure the regular playing time he is seeking, as his opportunities at City would be increasingly limited.
The winger joined Hull City in August 2025 and has a contract until June 2027.
In the current Championship season, he has made 20 appearances, scoring one goal and providing two assists.
His current market value is €1.20m.
