Transfer: Super Eagles striker seals N2.8bn move to Genk

Racing Genk have announced that they have reached an agreement with FC Midtjylland for the transfer of Paul Onuachu, via their official website.

The Super Eagles striker has signed a five-year contract with the Blue-White, keeping him at the club until the summer of 2024.

Though the fee paid by Racing Genk has not been disclosed, it is believed to be in the region of €7million.

That makes Onuachu the most expensive Nigerian player sold by a Scandinavian club.

Chelsea paid £16million to sign John Obi Mikel, but Norwegian outfit Lyn Oslo received only £4million from the deal.

Onuachu began his professional career at FC Midtjylland in 2012 and netted 74 goals in 181 games for the Superliga side.
