Abia Warriors cancel Chikatara’s Wydad Casablanca deal

Abia Warriors chairman, Emeka Inyama, says Super Eagles striker Chisom Chikatara no more has a valid contract agreement with Moroccan club, Wydad Casablanca.

Earlier this year, Chikatara agreed to join Wydad on a three-year contract that would have paid Abia Warriors $500,000 with the player netting a salary of $250,000 a year.

Wydad had also agreed to be paying the striker salary immediately the agreement was signed, but they failed to do so.

“The deal with Wydad is cancelled,” Inyama said.

“There is a renewal of interest in the player as we have received offers from all over Europe for him now – Austria, Germany, among other countries,” he said.

“We will study these offers before we decide on the boy’s future.”
