Awaziem: On-loan FC Porto defender looks forward to new challenge with Boavista

Chidozie Awaziem has revealed his excitement on joining Portuguese side Boavista from FC Porto and looks forward to the new challenge.

The defender has been with the Blue and Whites since 2014 when he teamed up with the youth team after leaving Nigeria club El-Kanemi Warriors.

The centre-back has only made 10 league appearances for the Estadio do Dragao outfit, having spent most of his time on loan.

The Nigeria international featured for Spanish side Leganes last season on loan and was a consistent performer for the club.

Awaziem made 26 La Liga appearances for the Cucumber Growers but his efforts were not enough to save the club from relegation.
