Isaac Success Departs Udinese as Italian Club terminates his contract

• Isaac Success's contract with Udinese has been mutually terminated, ending his second stint at the Italian Serie A club.
• Success made 83 appearances for Udinese, scoring 6 goals and providing 17 assists, but struggled with form and injuries, leading to his departure.

Through a statement on their official website, Italian Serie A side, Udinese has officially announced the mutual termination of Isaac Success's contract, bringing an end to the Nigerian forward's second stint at the Italian Serie A club. The decision comes as no surprise, given Success's absence from the team's first three competitive matches of the new season.

Success returned to Udinese in 2021 after a spell with Watford, but has struggled to regain his form, leading to a decrease in playing time. The arrival of new signings Lorenzo Lucca, Damián Pizarro, Iker Bravo, and Alexis Sánchez further pushed Success down the pecking order, making his departure inevitable.

During his time at Udinese, Success made 83 appearances, scoring six goals and providing 17 assists. Despite his contributions, the 27-year-old's career has been hindered by injuries and a loss of form, resulting in his exclusion from the Nigerian national team since 2018.

Success's departure marks the latest move in Udinese's summer overhaul, as the club seeks to revamp its squad and improve its fortunes in the Italian top flight. As for Success, he will now look to revive his career elsewhere, potentially returning to his native Nigeria or exploring opportunities in other European leagues.
