Obafemi Martins Joins Chinese Shanghai Shenhua FC

Obafemi Martins has moved from Seattle Sounders to join Chinese club Shanghai Shenhua football club. According to BBC report the transfer deal worth several million dollar.

Martins was linked with a move back to the Premier League in the January window, but British agent Tony Harris along with the player’s attorney Soroosh Abdi brokered the deal taking the Super Eagle to China instead.

Martins, who joins Senegalese striker Demba Ba at the Shanghai club, becomes the latest high-profile player to make the switch to the cash-rich Super League.
