The Offenbacher Kickers have signed Osarenren Okungbowa. The Austrian-Nigerian flexible defensive player is moving from VfB Lübeck to Bieberer Berg, BSNSports.com.ng reports.
The club made the announcement on their official website at about 5pm on Wednesday.
The 27-year-old Osarenren Okungbowa played 31 games in the third division in the VfB Lübeck jersey last season.
Previously, the 1.89-meter-tall left-footer was under contract with Rapid Vienna and Florisdorf AC, among others. Born in Vienna, he played a total of 28 games in the Bundesliga and the second division of Austria for both clubs.
Speaking after his unveiling, Osarenren Okungbowa said:
"I am very happy to be able to play at such an emotional club. This is exactly my thing.
"After I was shown the environment and the possibilities, there was no question for me whether I would accept the offer from Kickers Offenbach."
"I want to get fully involved here and be successful with the OFC."
On his own, Managing Director OFC Kickers 1901 GmbH, Thomas Sobotzik said:
"Due to his technical, strategic and physical abilities, Osa can be used very flexibly both in the defensive midfield and in the back row.
"As a so-called “late starter”, the former top talent of the Rapid Wien talent factory made his breakthrough in professional football in the past two seasons. We hope and count on Osa to be able to confirm and further expand these achievements at OFC," he added.
Offenbacher Kickers are currently in the German Regionalliga Südwest.
