FC Lion Blessed defender Joel Noukeu is buzzing after joining Kenyan giants Sofapaka FC in the ongoing transfer window.

The budding Cameroonian guardsman joined the Blue and White lads from Ghanaian lower-tier side FC Lion Blessed last week.

Noukue, who is among eleven players signed by Sofapaka ahead of the second part of the season, expressed his delight after penning the deal.

“I am very happy to be at Sofapaka Football Club because this team is like family and everyone has welcomed me well, from the leaders to the players, without forgetting the club’s president Elly Kalekwa, who beyond football, is a father to his players,” said Noukeu.

Joel said that in his evaluation Sofapaka is a very good team with young talented players, a good game philosophy and a great technical staff who clearly know what they want to achieve.

“Football is generally the same everywhere but each country has its own philosophy and way of play. I really hope to quickly adapt to Kenyan football and the physicality that comes with it. I am proud to be in Kenya and I can’t wait to make my debut in this Kenyan Premier League,” said Joel.

“I desire to win and every moment when I take to the pitch, my ambition will be to become a champion of Kenya with Sofapaka,” he concluded on the clubs website.
