The skilful midfielder represented Nigeria Premier Football League club Nasarawa United last season and his performance earned him a call-up to the national team.

"We warmly welcome Onuche Ogbelu and wish him a fruitful and successful career in the colour of the club.

"Supporters are eager to see him at work on the pitch and to witness his development within the team," the club statement read.
