Odumegwu Egbuonu on his transfer to KCCA FC
I feel so happy to be at the best club in the CECAFA region. This is a very big club with a very rich history and any player would love to be part of such a club. Back home in Nigeria, this club is respected for its performance and records not forgetting the philosophy of using a young team in major competitions like CAF.
The Nigerian big man started his career with Ifeanyi Uba FC in Nigeria in 2015 and he later moved to Warri Wolves FC in 2016 where he put up a massive performance in the Nigerian Premier League.
He later caught the eye of Plateau FC in 2017 where he spent a short stint before moving to Rivers United FC.
Odumegwu played for Rivers United when they played KCCA FC in the CAF Confederations Cup group stages in 2017 and provided an assist in the home and away game.
He then caught the eye of the KCCA FC scouts then and alas he has finally joined the Home of Champions.

I am here for only one job and that is to play football. I want to write history for this club and I can not wait to get started.
