Nigeria striker Kingsley Eduwo makes shock move to Iraq
#MTNshortz3sixtyworld
Two Nigeria international strikers, Kingsley Eduwo and Bartholomew
Ogbeche, have completed moves to Asian clubs.
Former Super Eagles Team B star, Eduwo, will be spending the remainder
of the 2018-2019 campaign on loan at Iraqi Premier League side
Al-Najaf FC from Tunisian outfit CS Sfaxien.
The 22-year-old represented Lobi Stars, Gateway United and Sunshine
Stars in his homeland before he was acquired by CS Sfaxien in the
January transfer window.
Indian Super League team NorthEast United have pulled off a transfer
coup with the signing of free agent Ogbeche, who found himself
unemployed at the end of last season after his contract was not
renewed by Willem II.
The experienced frontman has played in the United Arab Emirates for Al
Jazira Club back in the 2005-2006 season.
Ogbeche lists Paris Saint-Germain, Bastia, Metz, Alavés, Valladolid,
Cádiz, Kavala, Middlesbrough, Xerez and Cambuur amongst his former
clubs.
Now 33, he was one of the youngest players for the Super Eagles at the
2002 World Cup.
