Ex-Golden Eaglets star joins Bulgaria top division side, Botev Plovdiv
Former Golden Eaglets playmaker, Olusegun Olakunle, has signed a 2-year contract with Bulgaria professional football league side, Botev Plovdiv, on an undisclosed fee, from Fremad Amager of Denmark.
Olakunle confirmed this from his base in Denmark on Thursday.
The player also said that he had been loaned to FC Krasnodar of Russia for a period of six months.
“It is a great move for me, stepping up to another level and I am so excited, not up to a year in Europe and I can adapt so fast,” Olakunle said.
Olakunle said he was only waiting for his visa to come out so that he could join his Bulgarian club for the next six months.
The former Abubakar Bukola Saraki (ABS) Ilorin FC striker joined Fremad Amager in August 2020, after a spell with FDC Vista of Russia.
