Alex Oyowah’s move to Rivers United is stalled over contract length

A disagreement over contract duration has stalled midfielder Alex Oyowah’s potential return to Rivers United from Remo Stars, despite both clubs agreeing on the transfer fee and a sell-on clause.

Negotiations between Rivers United and Remo Stars regarding the transfer of midfielder Alex Oyowah have reached a complete standstill.

While the transfer fee is not an obstacle and Rivers United remains fully prepared to pay, the primary point of contention lies in the structural details of the contract, preventing the deal from progressing further.

A fifty percent sell-on clause is intended for the agreement, but contract duration remains the major hurdle.

Remo Stars are demanding a commitment longer than two years to protect future resale value through that clause. However, Oyowah insists on signing a mere one-year deal, leaving both clubs locked in a transfer deadlock.
