Nigerian defender Lekan Ayodele might change clubs in the coming weeks as his representatives are presently holding high level discussions with a number of teams predominantly from the Middle East.

The 22 - year - old is now on the books of  Shaab Ibb SCC, but from the look of things, he is unlikely to see out the last one year of his contract with the three - time Yemeni champions.

Adeniran Adewale Joseph, the CEO of Shiba Sport, who represents the player, is in contact with clubs from Zambia, Lebanon, Egypt and Jordan for a possible transfer in this window.

“Al-Mabarrah, Lebanon are the frontrunners for his signature. But he is also wanted by Smouha Sporting Club FC in Egypt and teams in Jordan and Zambia.

“Lekan  is a good professional defender and can play almost every role in the defense line and even move forward sometimes,” Adeniran Adewale Joseph said to allnigeriasoccer.com.

Before Lekan Ayodele left these parts to sign for Shaab Ibb SCC in 2012, he defended the colours of Shiba Football Academy as well as 3SC Feeders.
