Sunshine reject ‘ridiculous $250,000’ bid for Onobi

Sunshine Stars of Akure has reportedly rejected what it was described as ridiculous $250,000 bid from Tunisian club Esperance in their bid to snap up CHAN Eagles midfielder Paul Onobi.

Esperance recently penciled down the Sunshine Stars midfielder who famously benched Chelsea star Mikel Obi in a 2018 World Cup qualifier against Swaziland and even mandated a Nigerian agent to facilitate the deal.

However, the Tunis club were only prepared to spend about $250,000 for the player.

“You do not pay such amount for someone who is already establishing himself in the Nigeria national team,” a source was quoted by africanfootball.com

“It’s far short of the club’s valuation of the player, so there is no meeting ground.”
