Olayinka Joins Saudi Pro League Club Al Wehda On 2 Years Deal

Nigerian forward Peter Olayinka has completed a move to Saudi Pro League side Al Wehda on a two-year contract.

The 30-year-old joins the Saudi club as a free agent following his departure from Cypriot side APOEL Nicosia, where he made 14 league appearances and scored twice.

Olayinka brings considerable European experience to Al Wehda, having played in Czechia, Serbia, Cyprus and Belgium during his career.

His most successful spell came at Slavia Prague, where he won three Czech First League titles and three Czech Cups.

The forward also enjoyed a trophy-laden spell with Serbian giants Red Star Belgrade, winning two domestic doubles.

Olayinka has also represented Nigeria at international level. He was part of the Super Eagles squad for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.

His move to Al Wehda represents a new chapter in the experienced forward’s career as he begins his first spell in Saudi Arabia.
