Uzochukwu Ezeobi has signed a two-year contract with Barau FC, which was recently promoted to the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL). 


The center-back, whose contract will keep him at the club until the end of the 2027/28 season, played a crucial role in Barau FC's promotion to the NPFL, helping the team earn a spot in the top league, and he previously played for Shekarau Babes and Zamfara United.


Barau FC, which secured promotion to the NPFL after winning the NNL Super 8 playoffs, is expected to make quality additions to their squad before the commencement of the 2025-26 season. 


With Ezeobi on board, the team is looking to make a strong impression in the NPFL, and the club's owner, Senator Barau Jibrin, has pledged full backing for their NPFL ambitions.
