Chinese League One club Changchun Yatai have pulled off a transfer coup with the signing of Nigeria international Aaron Samuel.
Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that the left-footed center forward has put pen to paper on a one-season deal with Changchun Yatai, with an option for two years inserted into the contract.
Samuel is a popular figure in Chinese football, having previously worn the colours of Guangzhou R&F and Sichuan Longfor, scoring 34 goals combined in 62 appearances for both teams.
Though the 25-year-old did not receive much media attention in 2019, he had his best season as a professional last year, netting 19 goals for Sichuan Longfor and ended the campaign as the fourth highest goal scorer in the second-tier.
He has also represented the likes of Russian powerhouse CSKA Moscow, Amkar Perm, Sarpsborg 08 FF, Vålerenga Fotball and Beitar Jerusalem.
Samuel will be hoping to emulate the scoring achievement of Odion Ighalo at Changchun Yatai.
