Kano Pillars big forward Gambo Mohammed has pitched tents with Tunisian giants Club Africain on a three-year contract, his club have announced through a reliable source.
“Gambo has agreed to join Club Africain on a three-year deal. He will leave for Tunisia within the week,” said Pillars spokesman Idris Malikawa.
“Two other clubs from China and Saudi Arabia wanted Gambo but after we studied all the offers, we agreed that Club Africain’s deal was best for the player.”
At a press briefing on Tuesday in Kano, club chairman Abba Yola said he believes Gambo’s move will enhance the player’s career.
“This transfer is in the right direction for Gambo. It will make him a better player,” said Abba Yola.
He enjoined the player to be a good ambassador of the club as well as Nigeria, while thanking him for his total commitment to the club while he was there.
The striker who hit double figures in the 2012 NPL season failed a trial at Turkish Division side Bucaspor.
He is the perfect old-fashioned hitman who can pop-in the goals when needed.
The move makes him ineligible for the rest of the domestic league team's campaign in the 2014 CHAN qualifier.
