Rivers United have completed the signing of Malian
attacker Abdoulaye Kanoute.
Kanoute, a free agent, joins the ‘Pride of Rivers’ on a one-
year deal after a four-year spell at Lebanese Premier
League club Shabab Al-Sahel.
The 26-year-old, who is in line to make his debut for
Rivers United in Friday’s Nigeria Professional Football
League (NPFL) game against Lobi Stars in Makurdi, spoke
about his happiness at sealing the deal.
“I am happy to join this club which has a family
atmosphere and I have been accepted by the rest of the
squad,” Kanoute told supersport.com on Thursday.
“The coach (Stanley Eguma) saw my video and believed I
can help the club, especially in the Caf Confederation Cup.
“I hope to do my best to help the club,” he said.
Eguma, on his part, explained that Kanoute brings
"something special" to the team.
“It is not always that I sign players that I have not watched
in person but after watching his videos, I was convinced.
“Also, our scouting team, led by Bright Ogude, was
impressed with him so it was not a unilateral decision.
“Having watched him closely these past few days, I can
say that Kanoute brings something special to the team
and we only hope he can adapt quickly to Nigerian
football.
“I will decide (on Friday) whether or not he will play
against Lobi Stars but he has done well in training this
week and has been included in the matchday squad,” he
said.
Kanoute joins other foreign nationals like Yaovi Douhadji
(Togo), Zoumana Doumbia (Mali), Godbless Asamoah
(Ghana), Aliassou Sanou (Burkina Faso) and Guy Keumian
(the Ivory Coast) at the Rivers United set-up.
Born on May 14, 1992, Abdoulaye has previously played
for Bahrain First Division League club, Malkiya and
National Football League (India) club Churchill Brothers
SC.
