Former Super Eagles midfielder Joe Aribo is reportedly determined to return to competitive football when the January transfer window opens, with clubs in England showing interest in securing his services.
The 30-year-old has been without a club since his contract with Southampton expired without a new agreement. Despite the uncertainty surrounding his next destination, the midfielder has reportedly continued training to maintain his fitness.
Reports indicate that clubs in the English Championship and League One are monitoring his situation, with Luton Town and Notts County among the teams linked with a possible move.
Aribo is believed to favour a return to English football, although a move to Turkey has not been completely ruled out.
The former Rangers midfielder has 34 caps for Nigeria and has previously played for Charlton Athletic, Rangers and Southampton. His experience could make him an attractive option for clubs seeking quality and depth in midfield.
At 30, Aribo still has time to rebuild his career and prove that he can contribute at a competitive level.
For Super Eagles supporters, his return to regular football would also be welcome news, particularly as Nigeria continues its preparations for major international competitions.
The January window could therefore be an important turning point for the midfielder
