24 year old Nigerian winger Tenton Yenne has sealed a move to Russian Premier League side Baltika on a free transfer from Armenian side Ararat-Armenia, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
Tenton signed a three year deal to play for the ambitious Russian side who were recently promoted to the top division after winning the second division. He is expected to lead their charge to make a huge impression next season.
He arrives as the all time top scorer for Ararat-Armenia, the team he joined just three years ago. His signing is seen by many as a huge coup by the Russian side.
Two seasons ago he was voted the best player in the league as a whole after hitting 16 goals with seven assists in 32 league games. He ended that season with a total of 17 goals in all tournaments with 8 assists from 40 games in all competitions.
In the recently concluded season where his team ended it with a 6-0 thrashing of Ararat a few days ago, Tenton was among the goals netting his 17th of the season where he also has six assists.
The tally makes him the second highest goal scorer in the league , a huge feat considering that he majorly plays as a winger.
