Former Nigeria forward Brown Ideye revealed his wife’s reaction upon seeing the salary and bonuses offered by the Chinese Super League team Tianjin TEDA, which sought to sign him.
Ideye admitted that he hadn’t initially considered moving to China, but the financial package from TEDA persuaded him to reconsider.
In a post on his X.com account on Wednesday, August 28, the AFCON 2013 winner wrote: “I had no plans to go to China, Olympiacos received an offer from TEDA which they can’t refuse, my agent negotiated with TEDA about my salary and bonuses.
“When I saw the long numbers and told my wife, na she pack my luggage for me to leave the next day LOL…”
