Geoffrey Chinedu, a talented Nigerian striker, has secured a lucrative move to Astana, a prominent Kazakhstani football club, according to Soccernet. The 26-year-old forward, valued at ₦330 million, has put pen to paper on a two-and-a-half-year deal with the seven-time Kazakhstani champions.
Chinedu's career has been marked by a series of moves across Europe, playing for various clubs including Skenderbeu, KS Besa, Teplice, and Radnicki 1923. His impressive performances have earned him a reputation as a prolific goal-scorer, making him a valuable asset for Astana.
Astana, known for their dominance in Kazakhstani football, has won the league seven times and has been the only Kazakhstani club to feature in the UEFA Champions League. The addition of Chinedu to their roster is expected to bolster their attack and further solidify their position in the league.
The Nigerian striker was unveiled on July 4 and has already begun training with his new teammates. He is expected to make his debut for Astana on July 7 in a League Cup game against Kaspij Aktau. With his skills and experience, Chinedu is poised to make a significant impact in Kazakhstani football and help Astana achieve even greater success.
