Arsenal’s Nwakali joins FC Porto on loan

Portuguese giants FC Porto have completed the signing of Super Eagles and Arsenal forward Kelechi Nwakali on a season-long loan deal.

The youngster was part of the 2015 FIFA U17 World Cup winning team and he joined Arsenal in 2016 on a five-year deal.

He made his debut for the national team in their 3 -2 defeat friendly match against Atletico Madrid in May just before the commencement of the Russia 2018 World Cup.

“My main goal is to develop and evolve as a player, to improve my qualities and the other aspects that I know I need to correct to grow in the way I play,” Nwakali told FC Porto’s official website.

“I think FC Porto is the right place to evolve as a player.”

Nwakali will play in FC Porto B side in the second division.
