He said: ''I am pleased to join Dnipro. I am sure I can express myself for the good of the team. I'll be ready for matches, the tournament.
''What can I say about myself? I, Michael Odibe, a simple guy who works and does the job. I love people, I like socializing, but I do not like it when I am pressured. Respect for absolutely everyone - from young to old. I played in Italy, Belgium, Ukraine and moved to stay here. Hopefully, by the end of the season we will be able to play in the Champions League.''
Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk are playing in next season's UEFA Europa League. They finished fourth in the league last term.
