Olawale completes Dolphins move

After protracted negotiations, Dolphins FC and Kwara United finally agreed on a fee for the transfer of central midfielder, Isiaka Olawale, to the League champions.

Olawale has been Dolphins’ target for two seasons now but they always failed to get him to agree on a deal.

However, on Saturday night, after the league game between Kwara United and Dolphins, discussions between officials of both sides lasted till late at night until they agreed on a fee.

Olawale returned to Port Harcourt with the rest of the team on Sunday.

Olawale said shortly after that he is very elated at the conclusion of the deal.

He said: “I am actually very excited at joining Dolphins, knowing they have been chasing me for about two years now.

“Actually, family pressure kept me away from joining Dolphins two seasons ago because when I was at Lobi Stars my people wanted me to return home and that was why I chose Kwara United then.

“But after serving them well, I have said it is time to move on and that is why I am here at Dolphins.

“I hope to give my best to this club and help them achieve their targets for the season.”
