Obiefule: Could join Aberdeen

Obiefule set for Dons move?

Aberdeen boss Mark McGhee has confirmed the club are in talks with Nigeria midfielder Paul Obiefule over a possible January transfer.

The Dons tried to sign the 23-year-old in the off season, but could not agree terms with his current club, Norwegian side Lyn Oslo.

"We have invited the lad over for talks," said McGhee of Obiefule, who has been unable to train with Aberdeen due to a knee injury.

"He's a good player, so we are keen to get him in. He is expected to be fully fit by the turn of the year."

Obiefule said: "Hopefully, the clubs can sort something out. At the moment, they are trying to find out how easy it would be for me to move here."

Obiefule joined Lyn from Scandinavian rivals Viborg in July 2007 and has 10 caps for his country.
