Samuel Kalu’s Bulgarian Renaissance at Botev Plovdiv
Samuel Kalu has overcome a challenging spell in England and France to find new life at Botev Plovdiv in Bulgaria’s Parva Liga, according to Completesports. Since joining on a free transfer in September 2025, the former Super Eagles winger has made 20 appearances across league and cup, scoring three goals and providing two assists. His ability to cut inside and deliver powerful strikes has turned him into a key starter for the Canaries. Kalu’s spring form peaked with a memorable brace against Spartak Varna, showcasing his pace, technical flair and renewed work rate. Off the pitch, his experience has helped younger teammates navigate the pressure of a title push. Now 28, Kalu is more than an attacking threat. He has become Botev Plovdiv’s spark, reigniting the club’s ambitions on the national stage.
