A top official of top NPFL club Enyimba has confirmed to SCORENigeria that they have signed former Super Eagles striker Brown Ideye as a free agent.
His transfer will be announced formally shortly.

He joins a growing group of past stars like Ahmed Musa and Shehu Abdullahi, who have returned to the domestic league after many years abroad.

Ideye, who has played in the Premier League and Ligue 1, is expected to help Enyimba solve their goal-scoring problems.
However, it is left to be seen how he will be registered for the CAF Confederation Cup as the registration window has closed.
