Nigeria forward, Victor Mbaoma, has linked up with Algerian club, Mouloudia Oran on a two-year contract.

The striker is expected to join his new teammates in July.
“It feels great (joining MC Oran). I feel this is the best chance for me to express the quality in me,” Mbaoma told the club’s official website.
“It is a dream move and it came at the right time. I will use this opportunity to get to the next height of my career. Joining this great club, their style of play will actually help me grow.
“This is a great opportunity for me and I can’t wait to compete in front of the fans in MC Oran.”
