The Midfielder has reportedly signed a three-year deal at Oawkell after leaving Portuguese side Chaves.

” I know I can bring a lot to the team,” he told the club’s official website.

“I am looking forward to being back in England and making Oakwell my home for the next three years.”

Nwakali made 32 league appearances for CD Chaves.
