Chelsea FC has confirmed the season-long loan deal of Nigerian international, Kenneth Omeruo to Turkish side Kasimpasa.
“Kenneth Omeruo has today (Tuesday) joined Turkish side Kasimpasa on loan for the next season.
A full Nigerian international, Omeruo helped his country win the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations title as well as playing in last summer’s World Cup,” Chelsea posted on its website.
Kasımpaşa Spor Kulübü is a Turkish football club located in the Beyoğlu district of Istanbul, Turkey. They play their home games in the Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Stadium in Kasımpaşa, a neighbourhood of the district of Beyoğlu.
The 21-year-old spent last season on loan at Middlesbrough, making 22 appearances.
Omeruo signed for Chelsea from Standard Liege in January 2012 and upon signing went on loan to Dutch top-flight side ADO Den Haag.
Then only 19, he impressed enough in the Eredivisie to earn a call up to the Nigerian national team.
Now a regular international, Omeruo has represented Nigeria at the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations and the 2013 Confederations Cup in Brazil.
Omeruo cemented a place in the starting line-up at the Africa Cup of Nations as it turned into a wonderful tournament for the Super Eagles and they emerged from the tournament victorious.
