The club confirmed this in a press release on Friday.

The rest of the team are currently in Ikenne, Ogun State preparing for the second stanza of the 2024/25 NPFL season.

“Sunshine Stars warn clubs and agents not to deal with Salisu and Obiozor in the area of transfer without the club’s approval.
