Spanish club, Sevilla FC unveils the newest signee, Chidera Ejuke on a three-year contract on Monday.
The 26-year-old is first Nigerian to sign for the former Europa League champions.
The winger also hopes playing for the club will help him earn a recall to the Super Eagles.
“It is special to be the first Nigerian here. I think I feel good being part of this team and I am looking forward to seeing what I can contribute to the team,” he told the club’s official website.
“I also hope to be able to back with Nigeria, because obviously it’s always nice to represent your country, so I hope it’s time to do it again and I’m also very excited.”
Ejuke has constantly been on the move for the past two seasons since the Russo-Ukrainian war. Two seasons ago, the Nigeria international got a loan move to Hertha Berlin.
Sevilla Fútbol Club is a Spanish professional football club based in Seville, the capital and largest city of the autonomous community of Andalusia, Spain. As of 2024, it plays in Spanish football’s top flight, La Liga.
