Updated:2025-09-22 08:30 Views:83The Nigerian professional footballer Akpembe has renewed his contract with Chinese Super League (CSL) club, Jiangsu Sainty FC.
According to the terms of the deal, Akpembe will be playing for Jiangsu until June 2024.
The defender joined Jiangsu in January 2019 and has since made over 65 appearances for the team, scoring four goals.
He was also named as one of the best players in the CSL during the 2020-21 season.
Akpembe's contract renewal is a positive development for both him and Jiangsu, who have been struggling financially in recent years.
However, the striker still needs to negotiate his salary with Jiangsu before he can officially sign the new contract.
Despite the setback, Akpembe remains committed to his current club and hopes to continue making a significant contribution to their success in the upcoming seasons.
