Six-time Nigerian champions, Enyimba have signed Nigerian under-20 international, Joshua Enaholo, from lower division side, MFM.
Enaholo, who was in goal for Nigeria during the 2015 African Youth Championship (AYC) and the Fifa Under-20 World Cup, has been cleared by his club to make the move to the Aba Elephants.
Supersport.com learnt that Enaholo is already in Aba and will undergo medicals on Monday to compete his transfer to the former African champions.
Enyimba’s scouting team identified Enaholo as a transfer target after losing to the Flying Eagles during the Super Six Invitational, in Abuja.
Interestingly, Enaholo was brilliant in goal as the Flying Eagles defeated Enyimba 2-0 and eventually emerged champions after the completion of the six-team tournament.
National team duties with the Under-20 team ensured Enaholo was out of league duty for MFM during the first round of the Nigeria National League (NNL).
Enaholo’s arrival has increased the number of goalkeepers at Enyimba and will equally boost competition in goal as club gaffer, Kadiri Ikhana, seeks for an unprecedented seventh title.
