Udinese Want $2m For Rabiu Mohammed

Newly-promoted French top-flight side Evian Thonon Gaillard will have to pay $2m if they have have to sign Rabiu Mohammed on permanent basis.

Ghana youth international, who was instrumental in their promotion to the top-flight, is loan from Italian side Udinese.

Officials of the French have held talks with Udinese for the permanent deal for the enforcer.

Udinese have told Evian that Mohammed will be released by Udinese for US$2m.

The French club will decide this week whether they want to pay the amount for the youth international.

The 21-year-old struggled for playing time in Italy since moving from Liberty Professionals three years ago.

But since moving to France to play for Evian Thonon Gaillard, Mohammed has regained his confidence playing in most of the matches that helped the club to qualify.

Mohammed was a member of the Ghana Under-20 which won the 2009 Fifa Under-20 World Cup in Egypt.
