As the countdown to the 2024/25 Nigeria Premier Football League season continues, teams are busy strengthening their squads for a successful campaign.
Former Nigerian champions Enyimba International have been particularly active in the transfer market, bolstering their squad ahead of the upcoming season.
The return of NPFL matches to TV screens last season was a significant milestone, thanks to a five-year broadcast rights deal worth N5.91 Billion with StarTimes.
This partnership has enabled fans across the country to watch live matches from the comfort of their homes, bringing the excitement of the league to a wider audience.
Enyimba’s latest signing is 27-year-old striker Wasiu Jimoh, who joins from Zambian side Forest Rangers. Jimoh is no stranger to the NPFL, having played for several clubs including Shooting Stars, Ifeany – iUbah, Plateau United and Rivers United.
He has also gained experience in the CAF Confederation Cup, scoring three goals in Africa’s second-tier club competition, where Enyimba will compete in the second qualifying round of the 2024/25 season.
Another addition to the team is goalkeeper Abubakar Zalii, who arrived from Doma United. Zalii’s signing may be linked to the departure of Super Eagles’ goalie Olorunleke Ojo, who transferred to Sudanese side Al Merreikh.
