Kano Pillars technical
adviser, Ibrahim Musa has said that his side will sign two additional central
defenders during the mid transfer window of the Nigeria Professional Football
League (NPFL), SportingLife.ng can reveal.
Sai Masu Gida are currently
struggling in the defence. They have missed the services of Stephen Eze, who
has moved abroad, injured Emmanuel Anyanwu and late Chinedu Udoji, who died few
months ago.
The Pyramid City outfit
completed a move for CHAN Eagles assistant captain and central defender, Kalu
Orji, from Rivers United last week.
In a chat with
SportingLife.ng, Musa admitted that his side’s defensive line-up is the missing
link in the team.
“We are having a better
season so far but we are encountering difficulties in our defense,” Musa told
SportingLife.ng
“Stephen Eze left the team
for a club abroad; we lost Chinedu Udoji, to death a few months ago and
Emmanuel Anyanwu is injured. They were major part of the squad and we need to
have replacements for them.
“We have already signed
Kalu Orji and we will bring in two more central defenders. We have identified
three players already and we will sign two of them. As soon as we have
finalized the deals we will announce them. It is very important to do this if
we want to challenge for silverware this season which is actually our target.”
