Transfer: Orban targets move to big European clubs

Nigeria forward Gift Orban is keen to test himself in one of the top European clubs.

Orban caught the eye following his impressive displays for Belgian Pro League club, KAA Gent last season.

The 21-year-old joined the Buffalos from Norwegian second-division club, Staebek, in January.

The young striker netted 15 times in 16 appearances for Gent.

Orban opened his goal account for the season in Gent’s UEFA Europa Conference League clash against Zilina on Thursday.

Amid interest from a number of top European clubs, the player expressed his desire to move elsewhere.

“Look, I love Belgium, but I want to go to a higher-ranking league. I just want to gain more experience at a higher level,” he was quoted to have said by Voetbalkrant.

“My job is to play as high as possible.”
