CAF champions league holders Wydad Casablanca of Morocco have put transfer negotiation with a Super Eagles star on hold; nigfooty.com can exclusively report.
Gabriel Okechukwu has been a target of the modest Moroccan club following an impressive display at the CHAN 2018 hosted and won by Morocco.
The left-footed star has won the heart of Coach Faouzi Benzarti but will not be eligible for selection in CAF club competitions again this season after already featured in the Confederations cup for eliminated Akwa United.
President of the 'Emperors' Said Naciri made it known publicly that Gabriel Okechukwu can't help their CAF Champions League defence after the departure of former Abia Warrior striker Chisom Chikatara.
Michael Babatunde is the only Nigerian in their ranks but pressure to sign a point man has made the two time CAF Champions League winners to put their search light in the Nigeria Professional Football League.
Gabriel Okechukwu 22,scored 9goals in 16appearances for the 'Promise Keepers' last season but has yet to find the back of the net this season.
