Exclusive: RASHEED ALABI To Remain With Omonia, Rejects Move To Skoda Xanthi, Hapoel Ramat Gan
Published: August 15, 2012
According to leaks gathered by allnigeriasoccer.com's Editorial Staff, AC Omonia central defender Rasheed Alabi will remain with the Nicosia based club until his contract expires at the end of May, 2013.
Due to a glut of central defenders and for economic reasons, coach Neophytos Larkou had wanted to prune his squad. The top candidate to depart the club was former Gateway defender Rasheed Alabi.
But after holding clear - the - air talks over his future with Larkou last week, Alabi has been given the green-light to continue his four - year romance with the 20 - time champions of Cyprus. And based on the discussions with the coach, maybe, Alabi could be reinstated to the first team.
Other options were available to Rasheed Alabi if he had been shown the exit door by AC Omonia. Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively reveal that newly promoted Israeli Premier League team Hapoel Ramat Gan made enquiries on the availability of the center - back. Another alternative was Greek club Skoda Xanthi.
AC Omonia have played two competitive matches this season - Europa League fixtures against Crvena Zvezda, Serbia - with Rasheed Alabi watching from the podium. This suggests that the Nigerian is still an outcast, though he has been allowed to see out his contract.
