Exclusive : Abia Warriors To Pocket $700,000 From Sale Of Chisom Chikatara To Wydad Casablanca
Published: February 03, 2016
Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that Abia Warriors have agreed to sell Super Eagles rising star Chisom Chikatara to Moroccan Botola Pro side Wydad Casablanca for a transfer fee of $700,000.
Chikatara put himself in the spotlight at the African Nations Championship, notching 4 goals in 3 matches as the Super Eagles failed to progress to the knockout rounds of the tourney after losing 1-0 to Guinea in their final group game.
A lot of teams, predominantly based in North Africa, had courted the 21-year-old before Abia Warriors CEO Emeka Inyama accepted the proposal from Wydad Casablanca.
Tunisian powerhouse Esperance saw a bid of $500,000 rejected by Abia Warriors suits as it failed to meet their valuation of Chisom Chikatara.
The frontman will pen a contract designed for three years if he agrees personal terms with Wydad Casablanca.
