Nigerian midfielder Michael Babatunde has completed his move to Moroccan giants, Raja Casablanca, the club has confirmed.

The Greens have been on the trail of the 23-year old since the transfer window opened, but only agreed a deal on Wednesday.

The player arrived Morocco last Saturday and underwent a routine medical on Monday, but Raja couldn’t confirm the deal immediately as they had to deal with the foreign quota in their team.

The club however announced the deal on Wednesday, after Babatunde agreed terms and signed a three-and-a-half-year contract.

He will join another Nigerian, Osaguona Ighodaro on the books of the club, with the latter already at the club since last year.

Babatunde last played for Dnipro in Ukraine, but terminated his contract due to unpaid wages.
