Nigerian forward joins MLS side Kansas City

The Nigerian attacker became the second player from the Israeli league to move to Sporting Kansas in the last three seasons 

The Hapoel Jerusalem forward has completed his transfer to the Major League Soccer side, Kansas after a deal was agreed.

Agada, 22, will be added to the club’s roster when the second window opens on the 7th of July.

His contract is originally for a year but has the option of extending for a further two years and is subject to receiving his international transfer certificate and P1 Visa.

“I am so excited to be joining Sporting KC,” Agada said. “It is a dream to play for a club like this and I hope to come in and help the team succeed. This is a great opportunity for me and I can’t wait to compete in front of the fans in Kansas City.”

Agada scored 37 goals in four seasons for Hapoel Jerusalem and was until his move considered one of the fastest-improving forwards in the league.
