Flying Eagles winger, Haliru Sarki has joined United Arab Emirates champions, Al Ain on a long-term contract.

His club, Mahanaim FC announced the youngster’s transfer to Al Ain via their official Twitter handle.

“We have reached an agreement with a top Asian club side, @alainclub for the transfer of our player and Nigeria U20 forward, Haliru Sarki. The deal is a long-term project,” the club announced.

“We are wishing Sarki and his new club success in the coming season.”
