Azeez who represented Nigeria at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil signed a three and half year contract with Granada who are top of the second division and prime for promotion to the LaLiga next season.
Granada are presently one point ahead of second place Malaga as the battle for promotion enters another level after 23 round of games, and the addition of the Nigerian is meant to improve their chances of gaining promotion.
