Akpom Finally Dumps Arsenal, Joins Greek Club PAOK On Three- Year Deal

Greek club, PAOK FC, have signed Nigerian- born forward Chuba Akpom on a three-year deal from English Premier League outfit, Arsenal.

Akpom, 22, spent the second half of last season on loan at Belgian club, Sint Truiden where he scored six goals in 16 appearances.

He will wear jersey number 44 at his new club.

PAOK beat a number of top European teams to secure the services of the highly rated young forward who joined Arsenal at the age of six.

Akpom has spent time on loan at the likes of Brentford, Coventry City, Nottingham Forest, Hull City and Brighton & Hove Albion.

PAOK finished in second position behind AEK Athens in the Greek League last season.

Akpom will look to make his debut for the club when PAOK face Spartak Moscow of Russia in the first leg of their Champions League, third qualifying round fixture on Tuesday.
