Exclusive: FANENDO ADI Rejects Arsenal Kiev, Volyn, Returns 'Home' To AS Trencin

Former Dynamo Kiev forward Fanendo Adi has made a sensational return to Slovakia, penning a one - year deal with FK AS Tren&#269;&iacute;n, the club he left to join Metalurh Donetsk two seasons ago.<br /><br />Fanendo Adi, 21, did not leave up to his reputation in Ukraine. The ex Ajax Amsterdam trialist scored only 2 goals in 21 matches in the Ukrainian championship, not a good return for a player that was earlier tipped by pundits as one of the rising stars of Nigerian football.<br /><br />''I can confirm I have left Ukraine and signed a one - year contract with AS Tren&#269;&iacute;n, only waiting to complete the paperwork. Already I have started training with Tren&#269;&iacute;n. Hopefully, by Monday or Tuesday next week, I would have concluded all the formalities,'' says Adi to <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b>.<br /><br />The youngster had wanted to use his move to Ukraine as a springboard to bigger things in his career. Adi has admitted that he failed to settle due to some distractions on and off the field.<br /><br />''Lots of things were involved in making my decision to leave Ukraine, but the most important of them - my football was not developing as I had wanted. My dreams of playing top level football won't be realized if I remained there. I also had other distractions, the lifestyle does not suit me. In general, Ukrainian Football is not for me now, maybe later in future,'' says Adi.<br /><br />Adi, who was linked with a move to French club Monaco in the winter transfer market, added: ''Clubs in Ukraine showed interest in my services. Tavriya wanted me to remain. Arsenal Kiev were also in contact as well as Volyn.''<br /><br />Tren&#269;&iacute;n host Ružomberok next Saturday in the 10th round of matches in the Slovak championship. The Nigerian could make his debut in front of the club's supporters at the Mestsk&yacute; futbalov&yacute; Stadium if his clearance arrives next week from Ukraine.<br /><br /><b>Editor</b><br />&nbsp;<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
