Anichebe has joined the league of Nigerian players that are plying their trade
in China after completing a move to Beijing Enterprises on a free transfer.
The former
U-23 star now joined the quartet of John Obi Mikel, Odion Ighalo, Brown Ideye
and former Super Eagles striker Obafemi Martins who are already making names
for themselves in the Chinese Super League.
The Nigerian
has decided to move to China with Beijing Enterprises, who currently feature in
the division below the Chinese Super League.
They sit in
11th place in the standings, but they have won four of their last five matches
to sit seven points from bottom.
Last season,
Anichebe scored three goals in 18 Premier League appearances for Sunderland,
but he was unable to help the Black Cats avoid relegation to the Championship.
It was
revealed that the 29-year-old would depart the Stadium of Light this summer,
but it has not taken long for Anichebe to sign for another team.
It will be
the first time that Anichebe has played club football outside of England having
previously represented Everton and West Bromwich Albion.
