President, Osun United Engineer Jimoh Olayemi, confirmed the team has agreed personal terms with Udi and is scheduled to resume on Friday June 8, to take charge of the club dwindling at the bottom spot of the log.

“We have reached an agreement with Duke Udi. We’re confident he is going to return the team back to the winning ways.”
