Super Eagles defender, Kenneth Omeruo who just signed 3 years contract with Kasimpasa Football Club, expressed excitement over returning to a familiar ground.

Speaking to www.ckdmedia.ng; “Kasimpasa Football Club is a part of me, a team I actually cherish so much, even when I left Kasimpasa for the first time, I kept following their progress. Even when I went back the second time, it was the same experience and now, this is my third time in the club. It’s obvious that my relationship with the team is intact and how much more I want to wear the jersey again.

“There were some clubs vying to sign me, but my agent and I decided to join Kasimpasa, because the offer is good. I’m glad to have signed a 3 year contract with Kasimpasa FC.

Really looking forward to wearing that jersey again, and playing so well”.

The 2013 AFCON winner concluded by saying; ” I give glory to God for a successful deal”.
