Rizespor have mutually parted company with the Nigeria internationalist Uche Kalu, five months after he joined the Turkish club from Nigeria heavyweights Enyimba of Aba.<br /><br />It would be recalled that 25 - year - old Kalu was one of the candidates to make the Super Eagles 23 - man African Nations Cup roster. But the striker injured his groin while training with the Nigeria selection in Faro, Portugal in the month of January.<br /><br />In a chat with this portal, influential Turkish agent Mustafa Sezgin, who manages Uche Kalu, has clarified the position of his client.<br /><br />Sezgin told <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b>: ''It is understandable Rizespor cancelled Uche's contract because he returned injured from Portugal. Doctors say he will be out of action for at least four months. The regulation of the Turkish second - tier requires clubs to have a maximum of&nbsp; three foreign players. And to free a place for a non - EU player, they had to cancel his contract.''<br /><br />There could be light at the end of the tunnel for the Super Eagle as there is a gentleman's agreement between the parties which stipulates that Kalu Uche's contract will be purchased outright from Enyimba at the end of the 2012 - 2013 campaign when his loan deal expires. <br /><br />''Kalu Uche is well respected by the club.We only helped them to achieve their objective of signing another foreigner. Next season, with the arrangement in place, he'll be a player of the club again. With the help of the club, Kalu Uche is in Istanbul undergoing rehabilitation in one of the best hospitals,'' says Mustafa Sezgin.<br /><br />Before Uche Kalu's injury setback, he had scored 9 remarkable goals in 12 matches in the Turkish First League.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
