Kparobo Arierhi, a striker for Flying Eagles and Beyond Limits (Remo Stars Academy), has officially completed his transfer to Norwegian top-tier club, Lillestrøm SK.
The move, which has been in the works since last year, became possible after Arierhi turned 18 during the January transfer window.
The 18-year-old striker joined Lillestrøm following a successful season with the Nigeria National League team, where he impressed with a trial at the Norwegian club.
Arierhi was outstanding in the Nigerian amateur league, The Creative Championship, scoring 22 goals in 15 games.
He also contributed significantly to Nigeria’s U-20 team, scoring three goals at the WAFU B tournament, including two in the final against Ghana, helping Nigeria win the title.
“From, TCC, NLO, NNL, Gothia Cup, MLS/Adidas Cup, Viareggio Cup, Flying Eagles. We are sure you would have #NoLimits as you take on European football. Everyone at the academy is behind you, Kparobo,”
Beyond Limits, the parent club of Kparobo Arierhi, shared an update on Monday, highlighting the player’s progress.
Former Super Eagles forward Victor Ikpeba also praised Arierhi’s potential, recalling first spotting him at his 5-a-side tournament in Warri.
Ikpeba emphasized that Beyond Limits Academy provides Arierhi with the ideal environment to advance, adding that although it’s early in his career, Arierhi is a huge talent with a bright future ahead if he fulfills his potential.
