Al-Ahli sign Oboabona

Saudi Professional League club Al-Ahli SC have signed Godfrey Oboabona on a one-year deal. The 26-year-old Nigeria defender joins the Jeddah club after leaving Caykur Rizespor as a free agent after they were relegated from the top division in Turkey last season.

Oboabona currently holidaying in Nigeria will leave to Jeddah to formally finalise the move in a matter of days. The former Sunshine Stars man spent the last four years with Caykur Rizespor. Oboabona was a member of the Nigerian men’s national team that won the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations in South Africa.
