Through their official website, Norwegian Tippeligaen club Lillestrom have confirmed the signing of young Nigerian defensive midfielder Charles Chinedu Ezeh.

The 19-year-old has signed a four-year deal with the Canaries following a successful trial that lasted two weeks.

Ezeh trained with Premier League club Liverpool in April 2016, along with Suleiman Mohammed, Jacob Njoku and Chidera Ejike, but nothing came out of the trials.

For the remainder of the 2017 season, the midfielder will suit up with the number eight jersey.

Charles Ezeh joins Lillestrom from Jos based Gee Lec Football Academy.
