Nantes, Boavista agree on return of Super Eagles star
Posted : 09 August 2023
Chidozie Awaziem, the Nigerian defender, is poised to rejoin Nantes, leaving Boavista behind after a loan spell.
Previously loaned to Nantes in 2017-2018, Awaziem's permanent return is set to happen as FC Nantes and Boavista have reached a preliminary agreement.
The 26-year-old is expected to sign a lucrative four-year contract with Nantes, replacing Andrei Girotto, who is departing for Al-Taawoun.
Despite Club Brugge's interest, Nantes has emerged as the winner in acquiring Awaziem.
This move will reunite Awaziem with fellow Nigerian Moses Simon at Nantes, a significant addition as the team seeks to improve after a challenging Ligue 1 season.
Last season, Nantes narrowly avoided relegation, ranking 16th out of 20 teams and facing defensive and offensive struggles.
