French side, Girondins Bordeaux have reached an agreement with KAA Gent for the transfer of their Nigerian youngster, Samuel Kalu.
“An agreement has been found for the transfer of Samuel Kalu from KAA Gent,” read a statement from the Ligue 1 side’s official social media account.
The French outfit revealed further that Kalu’s move is still subject to the signing of “all administrative documents” from both parties.
The 19-year-old is seen as a suitable replacement for Brazilian star, Malcolm, who completed a move to La Liga team, Barcelona late July.
Kalu was one of Gent’s best players last season, scoring seven goals in 32 league appearances, assisting a further six in the Belgian first division.
