Including performance related allowances, Sunshine Stars are expected to net 650,000 Euros from the sale of their prized jewel, who had been on the wish list of clubs in France (Lille), Ukraine (Metallurg Donetsk) and Spain ( Racing Santander) following his exploits at the last African Cup of Nations.<\/p>\n

While disclosing details of the deal, Sezgin who also represents another Nigerian international, Kalu Uche said it was during the transfer process that Oboabona\u2019s parent club inserted a clause in the terms of contract.<\/p>\n

According to Sezgin, \u201cOboabona will earn 450,000 euros every year in the four- year deal, while Rizespor will pay Sunshine Stars 650,000 euros. During negotiations, Sunshine Stars inserted a 20 percent sell on clause in Oboabona\u2019s contract.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

The 23-year old central defender was part of the all-conquering Super Eagles team that won the 2013 AFCON trophy and was instrumental in helping Nigeria secure a maiden ticket to take part at next year\u2019s Africa Nations championships; a tournament he is now ineligible to feature in owing to the latest development.<\/p>\n

Oboabona has been named by Super Eagles manager, Stephen Keshi in his roster for the World Cup qualifying fixture against Malawi on 7 September.<\/p>\n
