Obafemi Martins Joins Chinese Super League Club, Wuhan FCFormer Super Eagles striker, Obafemi Martins, has joined Chinese Super League side Wuhan FC on a one-year deal.

The 35-year-old joined Wuhan on a free transfer after his mouth watering contract with Shanghai Shenhua, that started in February, was terminated last week.

The striker rejoined Shenhua for a second spell at the start of the new season but failed to make much impact at the club.

He failed to register a goal in four league appearances for Shenhua.

Martins had previously played for Inter Milan, Newcastle, Wolfsburg, Rubin Kazan, Birmingham, Levante and Seattle Sounders in the Major League Soccer.

Wuhan are currently fourth in the CSL Group B table with 16 points from 11 games.

Martins could make his debut when they face Chongqing Dangdai Lifan in their next game away.

His addition to the Chinese Super League side is expected to add quality and depth to the club’s attacking option.
