Motherwell FC have announced the signing of Nigeria player, Moses Ebiye.

Ebiye was captured by the Scottish Premiership side from Norwegian outfit, Aalesund.

Motherwell manager, Stuart Kettlewell described the process of signing Ebiye as a long and arduous one which a lot of people behind the scenes at the club committed their time in making it a reality.

He was impressed with the goal-scoring record of the Nigerian in Norway as he expressed optimism that the goals will be of benefit to the club.

“This has been a long and arduous process,” Kettlewell told the club website.

“A lot of people behind the scenes at the club have had to work very hard but we’re very excited to see what Moses can do in his time at the club.

“His goalscoring record in Norway is very impressive and we feel that is something that will benefit us as we go into the remainder of the season.”

Ebiye netted 26 goals in the Norwegian league before his move to Scotland.
