Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that former Nigeria U20 international Ifeanyi Mathew has completed his move to Norwegian topflight club Lillestrom, following a successful trial.

The attacking midfielder has put pen to paper on a four-year deal which will keep him at the åråsen Stadion until the summer of 2020.

It should be noted that Ifeanyi Mathew’s sporting rights belong to FC Hearts, Abuja, meaning Kano Pillars will not be paid a single euro for his transfer to the Tippeligaen side.

For the remainder of the 2016 season, the 19-year-old will suit up with the number six kit.
