In a move that has sent shockwaves through the Nigerian football scene, Victor Sochima, the talented goalkeeper, has officially announced his departure from Rivers United. The 25-year-old shot-stopper, who has been a mainstay for the Port Harcourt-based club, has decided to explore new opportunities.
According to sources close to the player, Sochima has attracted interest from two of the biggest clubs in the Nigerian Professional Football League – Rangers and Enyimba. Both clubs are keen to add the experienced goalkeeper to their ranks, but Rangers are believed to be in pole position to seal the deal.
Sochima’s decision to leave Rivers United comes as a surprise to many, given his impressive form for the club in recent seasons. However, it is understood that he is seeking a new challenge and a chance to compete for major honors.
Rangers, who have been actively seeking a top-class goalkeeper, are believed to have made a significant offer to Sochima, which has put them ahead of Enyimba in the race for his signature. The Enugu-based club is, however, still in the running and will hope to persuade Sochima to join their ranks.
Sochima’s departure from Rivers United marks the end of an era for the club, who will now have to search for a suitable replacement. The goalkeeper’s experience and leadership will be sorely missed, but the club will be hoping to find a capable replacement to fill the void.
As the transfer saga unfolds, one thing is certain – Victor Sochima’s next move will be keenly watched by football fans across Nigeria. Will he join Rangers and become a key player in their title challenge, or will he opt for Enyimba and help them push for major honors? Only time will tell.
