Ibrahim Olawoyin signs for Caykur Rizespor

Caykur Rizespor have announced the signing of Ibrahim Olawoyin from Ankara Keciorengucu.

The Lagos-born forward would switch Turkey's second-tier sides two years after he made a move from Enugu Rangers to Keciorengucu.

The TFF 1 Lig side announced on their official channels that they have signed the 25-year-old forward. The fee was not disclosed, but Transfermarkt published that he was signed for €1 million.

Olawoyin has already started training with Caykur Rizespor, and the official procedures that follow transfers would be completed with the opening of the transfer season, according to the club.  

Ibrahim Olawoyin was one of the brightest stars of the NPFL before making a move to Turkey. 

He scored 11 goals in 49 games for Enugu Rangers after playing 19 games for Abia Warriors and finding the back of the net four times for them. 

Olawoyin also made his mark on the continent. He scored three goals and made an assist for Enugu Rangers in 10 games in the CAF Confederations Cup.

Caykur Rizespor are also getting a footballer who already knows their league and has thrived in it.

Olawoyin made 25 goal contributions for Keciorengucu in the TFF Lig 1, 12 of which were goals and 15 were assists. 

Caykur Rizespor have acquired a key player from one of the teams above them on the log, and they would hope Olawoyin can aid in their charge to move up the log.
