…as Sheffield Utd chase Eagles’ star, Dennis
Turkish First League club, Ankara Keciorengucu SK has officially announced the signing of Nigerian left-back, Alabi Toheeb.
The 19-year-old, who is a product of Nigerian club, Prince Kazeem Football Academy, appended his signature to a four-year deal, keeping him in the Turkish capital until the end of the 2023-2024 season.
“We welcome our new transfer, Alabi to our club; we wish him outstanding success under our coat of arms,” Ankara Keciorengucu SK said in a statement.
Last season, Ankara Keciorengucu SK finished eight in the Turkish First League.
They play their home matches at the Ankara Aktepe Stadium and competed in the Super League in the 1967-68 season.
Meanwhile, Premier League club, Sheffield United, are in hot chase for Super Eagles striker, Emmanuel Dennis, according to reports emanating from the English press.
The star says Sheffield United are in the market for offensive reinforcements, with Emmanuel Dennis on a list of four players being targeted; the others being Reading’s Yakou Meite, Liverpool’s Rhian Brewster and West Brom’s Oliver Burke.
Though Dennis is an important player for Club Brugge, the Belgian champions are willing to listen to offers for the Nigerian, who is valued at more than 20 million euros.
Dennis impressed as Club Brugge registered their second away win of the new season, setting up the opening goal scored by Hans Vanaken in a 2-1 victory vs Racing Genk on Sunday.
The 22-year-old has been linked with possible moves to top-flight teams in Germany, Italy and Spain this summer.
