“Udo Fortune signed a one - season deal where he will earn good money, twice as much as he earned in Israel with Ramat HaSharon.
“He made his debut in a cup game with Mitra Kukar yesterday and he was on target.
“You know he trained with Kukesi and the club from Albania offered him poor wages contrary to what we were told before he went there, so we turned down their offer,” Johnson Nwankpa told allnigeriasoccer.com.
Udo Fortune is not an unknown quantity in Singapore, having previously starred for Sporting Afrique, Thessenson Khalsa, Balestier Khalsa, Arema Cronous and Persikab Bandung .
He has been handed the number nine jersey for the 2014 campaign.
