English premiership side, Manchester City have shipped midfielder, Chidiebere Nwakali to Aberdeen on loan till the end of the season.
Aberdeen, who confirmed the development said in a statement that the 21 year old is a player they have been working on signing for some time now, and hope he will be a positive addition to the team.
Derek McInnes, Aberdeen manager revealed that, Manchester City’s desire for Nwakali to have more game time played in their favour, when they approached the Etihad outfit for the Nigerian.
“Manchester City have been very keen for Chidi to get some competitive game time and it’s a deal we’ve been working on for a couple of months now,” McInnes told the official websit of Aberdeen.
“I’m sure he will be a positive addition to our squad.”
An Under-17 World Cup winner in 2013, Nwakali is a central holding player who scored four goals in 26 appearances for Sogndal in last year’s Tippeligaen.
Nwakali joined Man City in 2015 alongside Kelechi Iheanacho, but unlike Iheanacho he failed to break into the squad, which has lead to him spending time on loan with four different teams, Malaga, Girona, IK Start and Norwegian side Sogndal.
