'It will not be a big deal' - Oparanozie opens door to Nigerian League return after Guingamp exit


The Nigeria international striker could be the next high-profile star for the domestic league, with his departure from the French top-flight club
 
Desire Oparanozie has revealed it 'will not be a big deal' for her to join a Nigeria Women's Premier League club after she parted ways with French outfit Guingamp.The abrupt end of the Division 1 Feminine 2019-20 season in France due to the coronavirus pandemic brought an end to her six-year-long journey with the club.
The 26-year-old had joined the French top-flight club from Turkish women's side Ataşehir Belediyespor in 2014 and scored 45 goals in 106 appearances during her sojourn.
Having confirmed her exit this week, the striker, who is now a free agent, admits she is open to the possibility of moving on to join a Nigerian club.
“My contract with my French club ends in June, so I decided not to renew it because I needed to explore other avenues," Oparanozie was quoted by the Guardian.
"Some clubs want me to join them, but I have not taken any decision. If there is a need to come back to Nigeria to play in the women’s league, I will play.
