Chukwuemeka Obioma, the top scorer in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL), is on the verge of completing a move to Tunisian giants Esperance.
According to the Tunisian website Estunis.net, the 24-year-old striker is expected to arrive in Tunis on Saturday to finalize the deal.
Obioma, who scored an impressive 16 goals in the just-concluded NPFL season, played a pivotal role in helping Enyimba secure their ninth NPL title.
His remarkable performances have caught the attention of clubs abroad, and it seems that he is now set to join the former CAF Champions League winners.
The talented striker is anticipated to sign a two-year contract with Esperance, solidifying his presence in the Tunisian club’s ranks.
Prior to the transfer, Enyimba had made a tempting offer of one million naira per month to retain Obioma’s services, reflecting his significance to the team’s success.
However, the allure of joining a prestigious club like Esperance has likely influenced his decision to pursue this new opportunity in Tunis.
