Brown Aide Ideye, a professional footballer from Nigeria, recently recounted a humorous incident regarding his wife’s reaction to his transfer to China, particularly after she learned about his proposed salary and bonuses.
On his official account on the microblogging platform X, Ideye confessed that he had not intended to join a club in China. However, his former team, Olympiacos, a Greek professional football club, received an irresistible offer from Tianjin Teda that they could not turn down.
Following negotiations by his agent concerning his salary and bonuses, Ideye’s wife, upon reviewing the substantial figures, promptly took charge of packing their belongings, preparing to depart the very next day.
His words: “I had no plans to go to China, Olympiacos received an offer from TEDA which they can’t refuse, my agent negotiated with TEDA about my salary and bonuses. When i saw the long numbers and told my wife na she pack my luggage for me to leave the next day LOL…”
