Prosper Obah excited to win titles after Shakhtar Donetsk switch

The 22-year-old Nigerian winger signed for the Ukrainian giants from current league leaders LNZ Cherkasy.

He joined LNZ from Portuguese side Vizela and has gone on to score eight goals in 17 games in all competitions with four assists.

Prosper told his new club: "I haven't spoken to anyone about my transfer yet. For me, it's just incredible. I feel great. It's a big step for me, so I'm very happy! Good feelings.

"Of course, I was pleasantly surprised. Shakhtar is a big club, so when I found out about the interest, I was a bit surprised.

"I hope to help the club win titles – in Europe and the Ukrainian Championship. And I want to personally contribute to the team with my decisive actions."
