The tough-tackling midfielder is said to have reached an agreement with the Porcupine Warriors ahead of a proposed move after it was revealed that the Niger captain was in Ghana a few days ago to conclude talks with the officials.

Sakou was the skipper of the local-based senior national team of Niger of the last edition of the WAFU Cup held in Ghana last year.
