Done Deal: Raheem Lawal Inks Three-And - A - Half - Year Contract With Mersin Idmanyurdu

Raheem Lawal had previously reached an agreement-in-principle to join Super League club Istanbul Buyuksehir Belediyespor on a two - and - a - half - year contract, so we thought. There are new developments as the transfer did not materialize.

Turkish website haberads.com reported on Wednesday that Raheem Lawal has signed a three - and - a - half - year contract with Mersin Idmanyurdu. The transfer fee paid to Adana Demirspor has not been disclosed.

Recall that Lawal failed to return to Adana Demirspor after he was dropped by coach Stephen Keshi from his 23 - man African Nations Cup roster.

Mersin Idmanyurdu, 17th on the 18 -team Super League table, have on their payroll former Nigeria youth-teamer Nduka Ozokwo.
