Finally : Sunday Mba joins French club Bastia for €1.32m



Nigerian international midfielder Sunday Mba has sealed a one-year deal with French Ligeue 1 side CA Bastia on Thursday for €1.32m, The Punch has announced.

The 24-year-old who was earlier estimated for €1m saw his bid raised after he passed his medical with the Corsicans early this week.

With this contract, the former Worry Wolves star is henceforth ineligible for Nigeria’s maiden appearance at African Nations Championship (CHAN). The 2013 AFCON hero was decisive in helping Nigeria qualifier for the CHAN against Côte D’Ivoire.

Heach Coach Stephen Keshi shall now miss the captain of the home-based Eagles after losing Godfrey Oboabona who signed a four-years contract with Turkish top flight side Rizespor last week.

The “Big Boss” has always expressed his wish to see the “home boys” pickup good clubs abroad but he also said that he would have love to march on to South Africa with the team that brilliantly qualifier Nigeria for the Tournament reserved for players playing in their local leagues.
