Abdulazeez Saheed joins FC Kudrivka, moves to Ukrainian Premier League

Nigerian midfielder Abdulazeez Saheed has joined Ukrainian side FC Kudrivka from Right 2 Win FC of Abia State, beginning a new chapter of his career in European football.

The move will see the Nigerian player compete in the Ukrainian Premier League, giving him an opportunity to continue his development in one of Eastern Europe’s top domestic competitions.

Saheed’s transfer is also another example of the pathway available to young Nigerian players through the country’s domestic football system.

The 20-year-old previously featured for Right 2 Win FC, an Abia-based club that has continued to provide opportunities for young footballers looking to progress in the sport.

His move to FC Kudrivka now takes that journey beyond Nigeria.

A new chapter in Ukraine

Saheed has arrived in Ukraine ahead of the new chapter of his career, with FC Kudrivka based in Bucha Raion in Kyiv Oblast.

The move represents a significant step for the Nigerian, who will now have the opportunity to test himself against stronger opposition and compete for regular playing time at a higher level.

For Right 2 Win FC, Saheed’s transfer also provides another example of Nigerian domestic football serving as a pathway to opportunities abroad.

The development of young players remains an important part of Nigerian football, particularly for clubs operating outside the country’s biggest traditional teams.

Saheed’s move shows that opportunities can emerge from different levels of the domestic game when players are able to attract attention through their performances.

A chance to grow for Abdulazeez Saheed

The Ukrainian Premier League will provide Saheed with a new football environment and a different challenge from what he experienced in Nigeria.

The move will require him to adapt to a new league, new teammates and a different style of football while competing for a place in the FC Kudrivka squad.

For the young Nigerian, the immediate priority will be to settle into his new surroundings and make an impact on the pitch.

His progress will also be worth following from Nigeria as he begins his European journey.

FC Kudrivka’s decision to bring in the Nigerian midfielder gives Saheed an opportunity to gain valuable experience while continuing his development at club level.

The move could also open the door to further opportunities if he can establish himself in Ukraine.

From Abia to Ukraine

Saheed’s journey from Right 2 Win FC in Abia State to the Ukrainian Premier League is a reminder of the many routes through which Nigerian footballers can reach the international stage.

While the move is only the beginning of his European career, it represents an important milestone for the young player.

Speaking about the transfer, FC Kudrivka announced: “Abdulazeez Saheed has arrived!”

The Nigerian now has the chance to turn that arrival into a successful first season in Ukraine.

For Saheed, the next challenge is clear: adapt, compete and prove himself.

A new country, a new club and a new league now await the Nigerian midfielder as his football journey continues in Europe.
