The 31-year-old, who won the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations with Nigeria, penned a deal with the eight-time Romanian champions on a free transfer following the expiration of his contract with Turkish club Kasimpaşa last season.

The Romanian club confirmed Omeruo’s arrival in a statement on Friday.

“We are pleased to welcome Kenneth Omeruo to CFR Cluj. Starting today, he is officially part of our team,” the club announced.

“Omeruo is a seasoned professional who has played in some of Europe’s top leagues, including England, Spain, the Netherlands, and Turkey. His career has seen him represent clubs such as Chelsea, Middlesbrough, and ADO Den Haag. He also made over 120 appearances for CD Leganes across Spain’s top divisions and featured in more than 100 matches in the Turkish Süper Lig with Kasimpaşa and Alanyaspor.”

“He has earned 69 caps for Nigeria, where he has also served as captain. Kenneth was part of the Nigerian squad that won the Africa Cup of Nations in 2013 and played a key role at the 2014 and 2018 FIFA World Cups,” the statement further read.

On the other hand Omeruo was pleased with the move, stating he cannot wait to play in front of the home fans.

“I’m excited to be in Cluj, and I can’t wait to see you guys when the season starts,” he said.

Omeruo is set to begin preparations for the new season with his new team, and could likely make his debut in the Romanian Super Cup Final against FCSB on Saturday, July 5.
