Kelechi
Nwakali’s agent has confirmed he’s completed his move to Arsenal after signing
a five-year contract with the club.
Nwakali flew
to London last month to thrash out a deal with the Gunners after a £3million
fee was agreed with Diamond Football Academy.
And now his
representative has confirmed the transfer is signed and sealed.
‘Kelechi has
signed a five-year deal with Arsenal,’ he told Sports Day.
‘I won’t be
able to mention the exact transfer fee but it is above £2m.’
A talented
midfielder in the mould of Patrick Vieira, Nwakali will begin his career this
summer when he turns 18.
Meanwhile,
Kelechi is back in Nigeria and was seen in his thanksgiving service last Sunday
at St. Marks Anglican Ezibodo in Imo State. He confirmed the Arsenal deal.
