BigAl Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 Daniel Uchechi joins Aberdeen on trial Uchechi has played for Nigeria Under-20 level Former Nigeria Under-20 striker Daniel Uchechi has joined Aberdeen on trial. The 22-year-old began his career with Charlton Athletic and was also on the books of West Ham but was most recently on loan to Sheffield Wednesday. He left Upton Park for Dender in his homeland but was farmed out to Leicester City then the Owls. Aberdeen said in a website statement: "Craig Brown this afternoon confirmed Daniel is at Pittodrie and will train with the club for a couple of days." Uchechi was originally meant to go on trial with the Scottish Premier League club during the summer but instead turned out in pre-season for Peterborough United before joining Wednesday after a successful trial. He signed for the League One club until January, but the loan spell was cut short in November after he made only one appearance under Gary Megson. That was Uchechi's only senior appearance in English football, having played for Charlton's youth and reserve teams before joining West Ham in 2009. He was released by the then Premier League club a year later and returned to Nigeria National League outfit Dender. Uchechi had also failed to break into the first-team at Leicester during his loan spell with the Championship outfit last season. Aberdeen boss Brown already has former Rangers, Leicester, Motherwell and Norwich City midfielder Stephen Hughes on trial. Quote

Madbadteacher Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 They'll be here now whilst their leagues are shut down for the tournament and they're not good enough to play (or their team didn't qualify)? Quote
Jute Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 They'll be here now whilst their leagues are shut down for the tournament and they're not good enough to play (or their team didn't qualify)? Nigeria did not qualify. Still no wingers or full backs then? Quote
manc_don Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Nigeria did not qualify. Still no wingers or full backs then? Why would we want them Does Hughes count as a winger? Quote
glasgowdon Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Why would we want them Does Hughes count as a winger? No chance. This Uchechi looks fast, he'll probably get lumped out on to the wing. Quote
glasgowdon Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Racist It's a positive stereotype. Quote
mizer Posted January 26, 2012 Report Posted January 26, 2012 Looks like a loan deal if we can agree a fee with his club Quote
mizer Posted January 26, 2012 Report Posted January 26, 2012 Danny Uchechi in talks about a loan deal at #Aberdeen Agent tells me sticking point is loan fee due to FC Dender. Quote

Madbadteacher Posted January 26, 2012 Report Posted January 26, 2012 I dont understand this one at all, weve already got our full quota of shite attackers I would have thought Is that a euphanism? Quote
fatjim Posted January 26, 2012 Report Posted January 26, 2012 Is that a euphanism? or even an euphemism. Quote
Madbadteacher Posted January 26, 2012 Report Posted January 26, 2012 OK, so I only just got my higher Englush! At least you kent fit I ment loon! Quote
topcorner Posted January 27, 2012 Report Posted January 27, 2012 I dont understand this one at all, weve already got our full quota of shite attackers I would have thought Looks like Mackie and Magennis are offski, which leaves Vernon and Fallon, with Chalali and Megginson as backup. Room for another i'd say. Quote
Jute Posted January 27, 2012 Report Posted January 27, 2012 According to Retard deals been offered to both Uchechi and Hughes. Uchechi is now suddenly a winger as well. As usual both are short term deals. Quote
Stewart Posted January 27, 2012 Report Posted January 27, 2012 deal done apparently If true, this must be the most we've ever signed in a January window surely? Quote
manc_don Posted January 27, 2012 Report Posted January 27, 2012 If true, this must be the most we've ever signed in a January window surely? Well Brown did say it would take 3 transfer windows did he not? So I'd assume this or the summer would be the one where he could say he'd have his own team. Keep them coming! Quote
mizer Posted January 27, 2012 Report Posted January 27, 2012 Just a pity no wide player......................... Quote
