Official : Stabaek Snap Up Ohi Omoijuanfo On Three - Year Deal

Former Norway youth international Ohi Omoijuanfo has been rewarded for his excellent performance in the Norwegian First Division in 2015.

The 21 - year - old, who smashed 15 goals in 29 appearances for Jerv in the regular season, on Wednesday penned a three - year deal with Stabæk and he will play in the next edition of the Europa League, assuming he remains at the Nadderud Stadion.

Norwegian - Nigerian intermediary Atta Aneke was delighted that his client has returned to the Tippeligaen, a year after he severed  ties with Lillestrom, citing the need to play on a regular basis.

“It is a big step for him. Coming back to the Tippeligaen, if he does so well he can move to a better league in the next one or two years, ” said Aneke to allnigeriasoccer.com.

“Ohi Omoijuanfo has the potential to do well, he is a talent and a young player.”

Indeed, Ohi Omoijuanfo was once regarded as the top talent in Norway in the mould of Real Madrid rising star Martin ødegaard and was linked with a shift to EPL moneybags Manchester City in his teenage years.
