Super Eagles midfielder takes next career step in Scottish Premiership.
Nigerian midfielder Afeez Aremu has officially joined Scottish Premiership club Aberdeen, completing a deal that will keep him at the Dons until 2028, subject to visa formalities and international clearance.
Aremu becomes Aberdeen’s fifth signing of the January window, following the arrivals of Lyall Cameron, Liam Morrison, Toyosi Olusanya, and Per Kristian Bråtveit.
Backing From Aberdeen
Sporting Director Lutz Pfannenstiel expressed confidence in Aremu’s ability to make an impact:
“Afeez is going to bring a real physical edge to the squad, something which I think we have been looking for. He’s strong, robust and comes with good experience in a competitive environment in Germany. He’s also tactically aware, so combined with all his athletic attributes, we believe he can adapt well to the intensity of the Scottish game and make a real impact.”
Aremu Ready For Challenge
The 26-year-old midfielder is eager to embrace his new chapter in Scotland:
“I’m excited to be here. I’ve been made to feel really welcome, and I can’t wait to get started. I like new challenges, and I think Aberdeen offers that. For me, I am growing and taking the next step in my career, so it’s a huge move. I’m ready to give everything every time I put the shirt on and look forward to playing in front of the fans.”
