Kaduna United midfielder, Emmanuel Bivan has completed a switch to Nigeria Premier League (NPL) champions, Kano Pillars.

Bivan agreed to a two-year contract with the Kano team last week.

The former FC Taraba midfielder told supersport.com that he could not resist the offer of joining Kano Pillars for the coming season, as they will also compete in the 2013 Caf Champions League.

"I've signed for Kano Pillars ahead of the new season and it is a two-year deal. They are a very big club with so much ambition and I'm happy to join them at a time they are also preparing to compete in the (Caf) Champions League.

"I'm here to win trophies with the club and I believe we can achieve greater things together," said Bivan.

The midfielder has already started training with the Nigerian champions since last Thursday.

Bivan scored three league goals for Kaduna United last season after re-joining from Nigeria National League (NNL) club, FC Taraba in the mid-season.
