Former Nigerian footballer, Kelechi Nwakali, is on the verge of moving to a Cyprus club, PAC Omonia, following his departure from Barnsley. The midfielder, who had a successful career with Nigeria's U-17 team, winning the FIFA U-17 World Cup in Chile in 2015 and being named the Golden Ball winner, is set to return to the top flight of Cypriot football.
Nwakali had a brief stint with Arsenal, but various issues, including a work permit dispute, prevented him from playing for the club. Since then, he has had loan spells at various European clubs before settling at Barnsley in August last year. The opportunity to join PAC Omonia is seen as a chance for Nwakali to rejuvenate his career and further his development in the Cypriot league.
