Niger Tornadoes Midfield Maestro Courted by Top NPFL Clubs
By Paul Michael
Niger Tornadoes FC’s impressive midfielder, Ifeanyi Okechukwu, is reportedly being pursued by several top clubs in the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL). According to a reliable source, Plateau United FC, Enyimba FC, and Rangers International are all vying for the workaholic midfielder’s signature during the ongoing mid-season transfer window.
Okechukwu has been instrumental in Niger Tornadoes’ campaign, making 17 appearances out of 19 matches in the first stanza of the 2024/25 NPFL season. His impressive performances have caught the attention of the top NPFL clubs, who are eager to bolster their squads with his skills.
The midfielder joined Niger Tornadoes in July 2024 from Sokoto United FC and has since become an integral part of the team. However, despite the interest from other clubs, Okechukwu has expressed his desire to remain with the Ikon Allah.
“I’m happy at Tornadoes, and I don’t see myself leaving,” Okechukwu said in a recent interview. “The team has been supportive, and I’ve grown as a player since joining. I’m focused on helping the team achieve our goals this season.”

As the mid-season transfer window heats up, Niger Tornadoes FC fans will be anxiously waiting to see if their team can retain the services of the talented Ifeanyi Okechukwu.
