Uche Moses, Henry Ezeonye and top scorer Ebuka Nwokorie switch sides in relegation battle.
Barau FC have completed a stunning triple swoop in the Nigeria Premier Football League, snapping up Uche Moses, Henry Ezeonye and leading scorer Ebuka Nwokorie from relegation rivals Kun Khalifat FC.
The Owerri-based side have been dealt a significant blow by the departures, with the trio forming the backbone of Kun Khalifat’s attack this season. Between them, Moses, Ezeonye and Nwokorie accounted for 11 of the club’s 16 goals, underlining the scale of the loss.
For Barau FC, the signings represent a major boost as they intensify their fight to avoid relegation. The additions are expected to inject pace, creativity and goal threat into the squad at a crucial stage of the campaign.
Kun Khalifat, meanwhile, now face the challenge of reshaping their attack after losing three of their most influential players in one window.
With the NPFL relegation battle tightening, the high-profile transfers have added fresh intrigue to the second half of the season, as both clubs look to secure top-flight survival.
