Former Nigeria defender, Joseph Yobo, has denied reports that he has signed for Kano Pillars.

Yobo said he is yet to join Kano Pillars or any other Nigeria Professional Football League club.

The League Management Company had announced that Yobo had agreed to join the Sai Masu Gida and could feature against Sunshine Stars last weekend.

“I read that I was missing in action last weekend. I have not signed for Kano pillars or any NPFL club. Yet,” Yobo wrote on Twitter.

Kano Pillars, Ifeanyi Ubah, Rivers United and Wikki Tourists were the four NPFL clubs chasing his signature.
