Super Eagles Striker Chinedu Obasi Starts Training With Lillestrom
Published: May 13, 2016
Chinedu Obasi is poised to make a sensational return to the Norwegian Tippeligaen after the striker started training with Lillestrom, with a view to a transfer this summer.
The Nigeria international started off his professional career with Lyn Oslo along with his good pal, John Obi Mikel (Chelsea), spending three years with the capital club prior to his shift to Hoffenheim in Germany.
“Chinedu Obasi has been in Norway training with Lillestrom for the past three days, Lillestrom just want to see that he is not injured before they sign him, ” a top source told allnigeriasoccer.com.
“The director is interested in signing him; Chinedu wants to use Lillestrom to relaunch his career before he moves on.”
Obasi, who has also played for Schalke 04 in Germany, trialed with Sunderland in October 2015 but nothing came out of it.
If he is offered a contract, he will join Fred Friday and Innocent Bonke on the books of Lillestrom.
