Nigerian full back Abraham Alechenwu has become Vardar’s latest signing by signing a 1.5 year deal.

The 26-year-old left back Abraham Alechenwu, who has spent the majority of his playing career in Albania, is Vardar’s third official signing after Aleksandar Temelkov and Dragan Gjorgiev.  Alechenwu signed a contract for 18 months with the defending champions and should provide added depth to the squad in anticipation of the Champions League qualifiers later in the summer. 

Alechenwu is a left back who last played for Flamurtari Vlorë.  He holds the record of winning the most trophies in Albania as a foreign player.  He has won the Albanian Superliga title four times.

Besides Temelkov, Gjorgiev and Alechenwu, Jorge Giménez, a Spanish forward who last played in Lleida, is also expected to sign with Vardar in the next couple of days.
