The attacking talent joins the Galician club from Edel FC in Nigeria and will compete in the Segunda Federación (fourth tier of Spanish football) for the remainder of the 2025/26 season.
A New Chapter in Spain
Kelechi, who is highly rated for his technical ability, pace, and goal-scoring instinct, expressed his excitement about the move.
He is expected to link up with the first team immediately and will aim to make an impact in A Coruña, Galicia, where Bergantiños FC (nicknamed Los Brancos) plays its home matches.
This represents another successful export of young Nigerian talent to European football, continuing a proud tradition of Nigerian players making their way through the Spanish lower leagues.
What’s Next?
Kelechi will now focus on adapting to the Spanish style of play and proving his worth at fourth-tier level, with the hope of progressing through the ranks in Spanish football.
The club and the player will officially unveil him in the coming days.
