Super Eagles star moves from NPFL to Sudan League

Super Eagles goalkeeper and Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) side, Enyimba captain Ojo Olorunleke has completed a move to the Sudanese Giants, Al Merrikh Omdurman.

Olorunleke's transfer to Sudanese giants Al Merrikh Omdurman is a significant step forward in his career and promises an exciting new chapter for the talented shot-stopper.

Olorunleke established himself as a force to be reckoned with in the NPFL while playing for Enyimba as he led the People's Elephant to a record ninth title last season.

His leadership qualities were evident as he donned the captain's armband during the season while his exceptional goalkeeping skills helped solidify Enyimba's defense.

The Sudanese Premier League is highly competitive, and Al Merrikh Omdurman is a powerhouse.

The Kogi-born joined Enyimba in 2021 from Abia Warriors. He was also in goal for Sunshine Stars, Giwa United, and Akwa United.

Olorunleke was part of Jose Peseiro's squad that won Silver at the 35th Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory coast.
