Ex Flying Eagle Nurudeen Orelesi Testing With German Club

With hours before the close of the January transfer window, former Nigeria youth international Nurudeen Orelesi could leave Albanian champions Skënderbeu Korçë , according to reports in Albania.

Orelesi departed Skënderbeu Korçë's training camp in Portugal during the week to undergo tests with a club in Germany, writes panorama-sport.com.

The ex ECO FC star has been linked with a plethora of clubs in the winter market, but the bids from interested suitors were deemed insufficient by the hierarchy at Skënderbeu Korçë.

A proposal from FC Kryvbas for the acquisition of Orelesi was turned down by the club as it failed to meet the player's  500,000 euros valuation.The Ukrainian Premier League side had offered only 150,000 euros. Polish club Slask Wrocław were also interested in the services of the versatile player.

Orelesi, who represented the Flying Eagles at the Fifa Under 20's in Egypt back in 2009, was one of the best players in the Albanian championship in the first stanza of the league. He scored 2 goals in 13 matches.

If the midfielder is not offered a deal by the Bundesliga club at the end of tests, it is most likely he will extend his contract with Skënderbeu Korçë.
