Orji Okwonkwo has joined Major League Soccer club Montreal Impact on a temporary deal from Serie A side Bologna.
The move to the Saputo Stadium is the 21-year-old’s second loan stint from the Red and Blues after spending the second part of the 2017-18 campaign with Brescia in Serie B.
Okwonkwo joined Bologna from local side FC Abuja Academy in 2016 after helping Nigeria win their fifth Fifa U17 World Cup title in Chile in 2015.
The forward made his Serie A debut against Palermo on November 2016 and scored his first Serie A goal 10 months later, against Sassuolo.
