Transfer: Onyedika signs a five-year contract with Club Brugge

Belgian Pro League champions Club Brugge have completed the signing of Nigerian midfielder Raphael Onyedika on a five-year contract.

Onyedika joined the Farmers from Danish SuperLiga club FC Midtjylland.

Club Brugge rushed to sign the player after AC Milan expressed interest last week.

The Serie A champions had a €4m offer turned down for Onyedika.

Club Brugge announced the arrival of the young midfielder on their official website.

"Club Brugge and FC Midtjylland have reached an agreement today on the permanent transfer of Raphael Onyedika," read a statement on the club's official website.

The 21-year-old broke into the FC Midtylland first team last season.

He was named the best young player in the Danish league last season.
