Elderson Echiejile has been joined by another Nigerian at French giants Monaco, following the club recent capture of talented Nigerian teen Kingsley Michael, Owngoalnigeria.com can exclusively reveal.
18 year old Michael was spotted by a scout of the French giants during the Gee-Lec Football Academy tournament which took place in Abuja, early this year.
Michael is a winger who can play on either flank although his strong feet is his left, he is blessed with searing pace and an eye for goal which made him attract the attention of almost all the scout in attendance.
He has already arrived France to begin training with the youth side of the team, where his progress will be monitored by handlers of the first team for subsequent promotion.
Babawo Mohammed, the agent who organised the tournament could not be reached for clarification on the length of his contract, as he only got married yesterday in Kaduna.
