Onyeudo was in Akure this week to finalise an agreement with Sunshine Stars officials and is now expected to return in a matter of days to join the club for preparations for the second round of the season.

Sunshine Stars have turned to the former Gombe United striker in order to add quality to their attacking personnel ahead of this season's Glo Premier League second round which resumes in July.

"Bishop Onyeudo came to Akure on Wednesday and had a fruitful discussion with officials of Sunshine Stars. He is expected to return in a few days to join the team barring any hitch. We are strengthening our team for the second round and he is one of the players with experience we have identified to help our campaign this season," an official of Sunshine Stars told supersport.com.

Onyeudo will become the fourth player Sunshine Stars will hook from Abia Warriors in the mid-season transfer window.

The trio, who have agreed to join Sunshine Stars, are Nnaemeka Anyanwu, Emmanuel Fabiyi and Cletus Itodo, who makes a return to the Akure club.

The Akure club also signed experienced striker, Victor Ezeji, as part of strengthening their squad for the remainder of this season's campaign.
