Former Flying Eagles striker Paschal Durugbor has completed a transfer to Swiss second division side Xamax, Soccernet.ng reports.
Durugbor joined Sporting Lagos last season, but it was a failed adventure for him. The 24-year-old striker registered only four goals in 17 appearances for the Lagos-based club, as they suffered relegation from the Nigeria Premier Football League last season.
Following the club’s drop to the Nigeria National League, they would definitely lose some of their players, and Paschal is one of those.
This is as Swiss second League side Neuchatel Xamax have announced the signing of the 24-year-old striker.
It is not the first time that the former Sporting Lagos man will be playing outside of Nigeria. He had previous stints in Tunisia, and Sweden before returning to Nigeria later season.
The striker played for Nigeria at the Under-20 Africa Cup of Nations in 2019, and he had one goal in the competition. However, he has not had any other experience with the national team since then.
Xamax currently ply their trade in the second tier of Swiss football. Last season, they failed to gain promotion to the top flight because they finished fourth.
The last time they played in the Swiss top-flight was in the 2019/2020 league season.
