Tunisia giants Esperance have said they pulled out of a move for Nigeria midfielder Kingsley Sokari because they have more than enough foreign players and their new coach did not want any more signings.
The Enyimba midfielder was in Tunis to negotiate a deal and probably do the medical upon agreed of term but the reverse is the case as he returned to Nigeria.
Enyimba said they put the plug on the transfer after Esperance failed to come up with the transfer fee agreed between the two clubs.
Esperance claimed the transfer of the player was dropped by the club due to large number of foreigners in the team and the coach Jose Anigo did not more signings.
“Esperance Sportive de Tunis manager waived the recruitment of Nigerian Kingsley Sokari after consultation with the coach Jose Anigo,” explained the club.
“Indeed, given the number of foreigners already present, our club would rather enlist a foreign player more in line with the needs of the team.”
