Super Eagle's Winger Michael Babatunde Joins Raja Casablanca of Morocco

After his disappointing period with Ukrainian outfit Dnipro where he struggled to make any meaningful impact, the Super Eagles’ winger has signed for the Moroccan topflight side. Three-time Caf Champions League champions Raja Casablanca have completed the signing of Nigeria international Michael Babatunde from Ukrainian side FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk on a three-and-half year deal.

The 23-year-old left winger had joined the 2014/2015 Europa League runners-up from FC Volyn Lutsk, but was unable to get regular player time as he featured only twice under manager Myron Markevych.

Michael who was on parade for the Super Eagles at the 2014 Fifa World Cup would hope to revive his fading career with a move to the Stade Mohamed V and has been handed the no. 10 jersey.

He will compete with Mahmoud Benhalib, Mohammed Yakubu, Yassine Faqhaoui and compatriot Christian Osaguona for a regular place under coach Rachid Taoussi.

Raja Casablanca are 10th on the Botola Pro log with 18 points from 15 games.
