Flying Eagles skipper Abduljaleel Ajagun has
penned down a four-year deal with Greek
side Panathinaikos.
The deal is thought to be worth €200,000,
which Panathinaikos have promised to pay
Dolphins in the coming days. Ajagun scored three goals for Nigeria at the
Under-20 World Cup in Turkey as the coach
John Sam Obuh-led boys advanced into the
round of 16 before losing 2-1 to South
Americans Uruguay in June. Following his performance at the
tournament, several clubs from Turkey and
Croatia were linked with the 20-year-old
Lagos-born footballer before he decided to
join Panathinaikos. Negotiation for the attacking midfielder
was prolonged for days whilst Pana insisted
on an exhaustive medical for the former
U-17 footballer. Ajagun played 40 minutes for his new side
in a test game against the Panathinaikos
U-21 side on Monday.
