Bassogog: Shanghai Shenhua sign Cameroon star from rivals Henan Songshan Longmen

Shanghai Shenhua have signed Christian Bassogog on a permanent deal from Chinese Super League rivals Henan Songshan Longmen.

The arrival of Bassogog who scored two goals in eight league matches last season, is expected to boost Choi Kang-Hee's team following the departures of Nigeria duo Odion Ighalo and Obafemi Martins.

Ighalo left the club last month after his loan at Manchester United while Martins was released two months after he returned to Shanghai in July 2020.
