Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that EFL League One club Exeter City have won the race for the services of promising player of Nigerian descent Santino Ohanaka. 

Following a successful trial, Ohanaka has signed a scholarship deal with Grecians, which will be activated in July 2023.

The talented teenager trialed at a number of clubs in England before deciding to pick Exeter City over his other suitors. 

Championship club Norwich City offered Ohanaka a schoolboy contract but he rejected it in favor of continuing his career at Exeter City, who offered him a scholarship. 

The Anglo-Nigerian youngster has been training with Exeter City youth teams since January 2023, and has played a couple of matches for their U18 side.

He was on target as Exeter City defeated Bristol Rovers U18s in a Merit League Two fixture in March. 

Ohanaka is a versatile player who is comfortable being deployed as a winger and midfielder. 

He has represented Tottenham Hotspur youth team in the past.
