Nigeria's Kelechi Nwakali is poised to join Cyprus' First Division club, PAC Omonia, following his departure from English team Barnsley. The midfielder, who played a key role in Nigeria's FIFA U-17 World Cup victory in 2015, has had a fluctuating career, moving between various European clubs, including Arsenal, MVV Maastricht, VVV-Venlo, Porto B, Huesca, Alcorcón, Ponferradina, Chaves, and finally Barnsley in August 2022.
Nwakali's contract with Barnsley was mutually terminated to make way for his potential move to Cyprus. The 24-year-old had a chance to play for Arsenal but missed out due to administrative issues, including a work-permit dispute that kept him away from the Gunners for months. His stint at Barnsley was his first permanent move, and he hopes the transfer to Omonia will provide him with a fresh chance to revive his career and make a mark in the Cypriot top division.
