Isaac Success, a forward for the Super Eagles, has moved his career to the Middle East, departing from the prominent leagues of Europe.
He has signed with Al Wasl, a leading team in the UAE Pro League. This transfer follows the surprising decision by his previous club, Udinese, to end his contract.
Al Wasl, the current champions of the UAE Pro League, has officially announced Success’s signing in a substantial agreement.
The specifics of his contract remain undisclosed; however, it appears that the future of the 28-year-old, who once captivated audiences on Europe’s grandest stages, remains promising.
Isaac Success is set to embark on a new journey in the UAE. A pivotal player in Nigeria’s triumph at the 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup, Success has been without a club following his departure from Udinese.
His agreement with the Italian club was mutually terminated in August, concluding a three-year period during which he scored four goals in 79 matches.
Although his goal-scoring record may be modest, Success’ physicality and work ethic render him a significant asset for any team.
Having not participated in a match since May 2024, where he played only seven minutes in Udinese’s draw against Empoli, Success is keen to overcome his inactivity and rejuvenate his career.
His tenure in Spain with Granada and Malaga, followed by his time in England with Watford, will undoubtedly benefit him in this new chapter of his career.
Al Wasl, the reigning champions of the UAE, are anticipated to contend not only in the Pro League but also in the Presidents Cup and the AFC Champions League this season.
For Isaac Success, this represents a fresh chance to regain his form, re-establish his presence, and rediscover his scoring ability.
