Official : Homesick Benjamin Onwuachi Departs Iraklis

Published: April 29, 2014

Both Iraklis and Benjamin Onwuachi have mutually agreed to shred the agreement between both parties less than two months before his deal would have expired, reports gazzetta.gr.

Thus, the 30 - year - old will not take part in the First Division clash with Kerkyra on Wednesday, April 30.

It must said that the Nigerian forward has been homesick since he put pen to paper on a one - year deal with Iraklis last summer.

Recently, the leadership of the club spent 2,500 euros on airline tickets for his children to come to Greece to keep him company.

During his time at Iraklis, Benjamin Onwuachi was often moody, and on several occasions he found an excuse either to train on his own or skip practice.

Today, after refusing to exercise with the rest of his teammates, the sporting director terminated his contract, then sent him to discuss with the rest of the hierarchy.

The former Kavala, Panaitolikos and Xanthi man was the highest paid player at Iraklis. He netted 4 goals in 24 appearances for Iraklis in the second - tier.
