There have been lots of speculations recently that the former Rivers United forward would move to China after failing to report for pre season training with Arsenal Ladies.

But the Super Falcons' striker was said to have denied talks with any Chinese club claiming that she would not move to the Chinese Super League.

The 22-year-old who won the Women’s FA Cup with Arsenal Ladies during her first year with the club was however said to have signed an undisclosed deal with the Chinese club.

Oshoala is the reigning CAF African Women best Footballer of the Year after winning the award in Abuja in January 2017.
