Nigeria’s FIFA under 17 world cup winner Kelechi Nwakali has signed for Arsenal football club on a 5 year deal.
Kelechi who captained the Golden Eaglets to victory at the tournament announced on Facebook yesterday that he had agreed a move to the Emirates.
Nwakali’s transfer has been in the works since January, when he visited current Gunner’s boss Arsene Wenger at the Emirates Stadium while Vardy Turns Down Arsenal Offer
He had been ineligible for a transfer due to FIFA regulations on signing youth players from other countries.
The impending transfer was recently concluded because he turned 18 this month and the midfielder posted a picture of himself holding an Arsenal shirt with his name on the back
